    Cheapo tape residue....

    Whats the best way of removing sticky masking tape residue without damaging the plastic? I used some cheapo tape to hold the fuselage together while the glue set and when I removed it, it has left a horrible sticky residue. The tape has been binned and a better quality purchased.
