I’m having problems with the sticky residue that trans tape leaves behind. Any tips on getting rid of it?

    Hello from All. Sorry if I’m intruding on the community. Have you tried acetone (nail polish remover) and/or almond oil?

    My boyfriend uses the branded oil Trans Tape sells, but he only uses the tape occasionally, not frequently enough to have residual residue from multiple uses and I’d guess you’d have tried the solution the brand recommends first.

    Another friend of mine says they pretty much bathe in oil to remove it.

    If all else fails (alcohol, baby oil), gasoline or goof off. Although gas is obvs real bad for the skin.

    I have been rubbing vaseline on the leftover adhesive to get it off. Sometimes I gotta scratch it then leave the lot of it to fall off over the day before showering.
