Thank you so much! This worked wonderfully. All the best from an old and very grateful English guy.

Yes a hero , thank you just got some tricky rug tape off my new carpet.... Bingo ! job done , can't thank you enough

im still living in my childhood bedroom, and ive had a piece of tape on my carpet for YEARS. im finally able to remove it without any residue. thanks matt!

Mine is the roll of carpet protector, where some is not budging 😢 will try this and see 🙏🏽 Thanks for loading

Flipping heck I've got as much as you on very similar carpet and couldn't get it off. I've been watching so many videos but either they show tiny area's but mines bad just like this and thought I'd never be able to remove it. I haven't got an iron I have a steamer but hopefully will do the same thing. What a nightmare the tape is and it took off a load of pattern from my new rug when I lifted it. This tape should come with a warning. Even my feet are sticking to it. Great for rugs but a bitch to remove. I hope this works 💪🏽

That method also works with candles too Thanks. 👍

Thanks so much. I was beginning to think I would have to replace carpet. Never again will I use this stuff.😮

thanks, that will save me time.! BIG THX

Or, if you not an idiot, use a blow dryer...Works in seconds.

THANK YOU! I used Alien Tape on a runner over carpet walkway. It was UGLY when I took the runner up. I used Parchment Paper since it was all I had on hand. WORKED! Appreciate your sharing this information.

Man o man! It worked perfect for me. Thank uou sooo much

Thank you. Bought a outdoor rug at CostCo and I ruined the rug by adding WD40 to get sticker off. This would have been a much better choice

You are my hero!! I used a teflon sheet instead of a paper bag and the tape stuck to teflon so I didn't have to pull the tape at all. Still, I wouldn't have even thought of heating rhe adhesive. My mom put double sided tape under a rug to keep it still, and the tape didn't stick to the rug, but stuck hard to almost brand new carpet (less than 2 years old). It's been grating on my nerves for over a year and just now I reached my "I can't take this anymore" point. The tape is completely up. Thank you so much!!!

Thank you for this video! Just want to say that a hairdryer was able to remove a super sticky clear tape from carpet for me as well!

This worked amazing omg you just saved hours of my life, thank you

😂

Works with gorilla tape as well! Thank you!

Thanks I will be trying this method!

please what brand tape was this, i am looking for one to work this well, but so many mixed reviews on a lot of them on amazon; thanks for the tips.

Fantastic. Thanks, worked for me last night though carpet is still faintly tacky where the weeks-ago-applied-tape's been lifted off, so I will try passing a steam mop with microfiber pad over it and see how that goes. If that doesn't work I will spray diluted washing liquid in hot water as per another KZbin vid on the same problem but nevertheless I'm very pleased at the initial result.

Thank you!!! Saved me a ton of time today.

Good to know. Thanks for taking the time to post this!

U just saved my sanity. I thought my giant, super absorbent, sixty FREAKING dollar dog rug that I spent a year talking myself into buying was ruined by carpet tape that no doubt used surgical glue as adhesive. Came right off. Good on u sir, thanks!

Thank you so much, it worked perfectly after 12 years on the carpet...redesigned bedroom now is perfect and no residue or marks. Thank you

This video helped so much! I was wondering if I would damaged my carpet trying to fight with this adhesive tape but after I watched this video I followed the exact steps and it worked perfectly! You def have to make sure it’s hot enough and it literally melts the tape and comes right off! Thank you for sharing!!!!! I used LOW SYNTHETIC SETTING & ironed over here for like 3 -5 minutes and it came right off.

THANK YOU!!!

Just use another piece of carpet tape to grab it …figured it out whilst watching this haha

This worked great and fast!!!

I just removed some tape from the carpet that had been there for several years with this method I use baking parchment paper and it came right off!!!

I will give it a try and let you know if it worked. :)

Would this work on adhesive that’s like over 20 years old

THANK YOU!!! Used a Whole Foods paper bag and an iron, and the tape stuck to the bag and then the rest peeled right off! Saved hundreds of dollars and hundreds of hours!

Thank you so much for this. I am moving house tomorrow and got a rug up and the adhesive strip was stuck to the carpet! All removed really quick and simple and most importantly it worked

Great tip, thank you.

Thank you. Very helpful. 👍

Same problem except mine is an area rug that I love. Washed it and didn’t think the residue was bad, but is collecting dirt in a couple spots. I’ll definitely give this a try. Thank you.

Thank you so much, your video saved me so much time and a lot of back pain that I most definitely would have had....

This treatment worked great! Now, I need to find a solution to remove stickiness from the carpet where the adhesive was

I did this but it melt the tape into the carpet

Thank you so much. I've been wondering for months how to get the tape up. That was so easy, quick and convenient.

Thank you! That was a lifesaver!!

Thank you 🙏🏼 thank you 🙏🏼 for getting me out of a sticky situation ! Brilliant idea ! 🌟

Done this morning thank you worked perfectly 100%

Don't just check the heat of bag- check carpet to make sure it doesn’t melt.

Thank you - tried everything until I tried the iron. Worked immediately!

You helped us save our deposit! Thank you SO much for this!

Thank you! This was extremely helpful!!

Thank you!!!! The iron really worked on this carpet tape even after peeling off the white, the clear sticky part was still on and I thought my carpet was permanently damaged. This totally worked!

Thank you, this was a much needed tip! Bless your cotton Sox!

Amazing. Thank you! I thought I’d ruined the whole carpet after changing rugs for the first time in 2 years! Thanks again for sharing. Phew!!
