About 2 years ago I bought some white Contiboard shelving, but then shelved the project I intended to use them for.
Now I have found a new use for the shelving. However, the red Contiboard labels are well and truly stuck down hard to the board, and all attempts to remove them have failed.
Any ideas on how to remove the labels without doing damage?
Caustic soda?
Sunflower oil/margarine, left on a day or so. Most labels are somewhat grease permeable, and won't stick to greasy surfaces, so...
Try nail varnish remover or white spirit - nail varnish remover is usually better as you can guarantee it won't bleach the boards (guess it doesn't matter if they're white)
Label remover from Maplin, CPC, etc.
Or try WD40. Works on some.

Thanks for all the suggestions. The angle grinder was just the job.
