I have found that a drop of GOO GONE (Magic American Products) spread
onto the label and allowed to soak for 5 minutes allow you to lift the
label off. There may be a small amount of stickum left on the part that
comes off easily with a drop of lacquer thinner.

FYI,
Keep the lacquer thinner in a plastic squirt bottle. Squirt some on the label and in about 60 seconds or less, peel off the label, wipe off the excess and your done.

Ron,
Not that it's any of my business, but lacquer thinner, and plastic bottles do not go together. Leave a small quantity of thinner in a test bottle over night, and the next morning it will have magicaly disapeared, along with the finish on top of your work bench.  (

I have switched to a hot air gun, no chemicals, very fast. Hair dryer works set on high.
