Goo on Formica

1. Clean Goo while still wet when possible. Dried Goo may be harder to remove. Remove as much 

excess Goo as possible by wiping away with a cloth or gently scraping with a smooth edge like a plastic 
card or dull knife. 

2. Apply dish soap directly to the stain. 

3. Gently scrub the area with a soft bristle scrub brush, adding water and rinsing, as needed.

4. If Goo remains, make a mixture of 1 part vinegar and 1 part water. Use a soft bristle brush to 
scrub the area. 

5. Thoroughly rinse the area with water. Repeat as needed
