Anne, List, The absolute worst sticky tape to remove is Scotch No. 800 and similarly formulated varieties of clear packing tapes.
Years ago, when my family ran a drugstore, we used Scotch No. 800 to wrap the label onto your pill bottles because you never want that kind of label to come off... ever. The only two solvents that would work on that stuff was petroleum-distillate-based cigarette-lighter fluid or acetone, neither of which is pleasant to work with and will require a well- ventilated area. There is a good but even more primitive solution to holding a plastic box shut, but one that is very effective. Go to an office supply store and buy a box of 1/4" (wide) rubber bands of the right length to be stretched tight in one or two wraps around your packaging. No residue at all. Sterling K.
