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

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.

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

MtF, so I don’t use tape, but coconut oil seems to be a good sticky remover!

Don’t go crazy with any chemicals, give some baby oil a shot first

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.
