How to remove dried hot glue gun glue from fabric?

  • How can I remove dried hot glue gun glue from fabric without ruining the fabric?

  • Answer:

    What type of fabric? I had industrial hot glue on a new pair of black jeans (heartbreaking!). I turned the jeans inside-out, placed a piece of paper towel on top of a piece of aluminum foil and slid them inside the pant leg. I ran a hot iron over the glued spot causing the glue to transfer to the paper towel. Quickly remove the towel/foil before the glue cools and resets. The jeans came out perfect.

It depends on the fabric and the glue. Different glues melt and different temperatures. Different fabrics melt/scorch at different temperatures. If the fabric can "take" a higher temperature (i.e. cotton jeans or linen), maybe the heating carefully described in the earlier answer would be the ticket. If the fabric can't "take" a higher temperature, you're stuck. Can a pocket or decoration be placed there? Can the area be omitted (long-sleeved becomes short-sleeved)? Would you be willing to salvage the fabric for another use (i.e. spoiled silk blouse becomes luxury silk lining for a jacket).
