Default Vinyl glue removal

Howdy, Y'all
Anyone have a way to remove the glue from a t-shirt after you remove the vinyl lettering. I use a spot remover gun to remove the lettering or the commericial product that's like a laquer thinner, but there's a residue of the glue left on the shirt. Thought there might be a way to remove that.'
Thanks in advance
Slick

Hey Jim, we use transfer paper. Lay it down where the glue is, heat tack it at 330 for 2-3 seconds. Most, if not all of the glue should come up on the paper

Transfer paper?
I thought parchment paper works for this.

I'm pretty sure it's transfer paper for plastisol transfers. I'm not the one who orders it, so I'm not positive. But that's what it feels like. I haven't tried anything else, but there's probably other stuff out there that will work.
