    What gets rid of masking tape??

    As the title suggests - I'm after suggestions (or solutions) to get rid of the sticky excess that masking tape has left behind on some of my tupperware.

    I have been using it to label frozen food but the sticky residue always hangs around for longer than it's welcome - LOL.

    Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks in advance ladies!!

    better roosted

    Baby oil or lemon essence will get it right off. Baby oil is the best for removing a lot of things, like temp tattoos, wax, makeup etc. HTH

    there is a thing in the cleaning isle called "desolvit" and it is an orange citrus based - it gets ANYTHING off - in this place it has been known to get grease off engines, silicon sealant, off the edge of tiles (which was the effect I DIDN'T want ), gloss paint off hands without scrubbing
