: Any recommendations for removal of duct tape adhesive? The last roll I used
: on my Mill Creek left half the adhesive on the boat! Are there any
: particular solvents that will leave a residue that impeeds epoxy cure?
: Thanks for your assistance.

I do not know about its affects on epoxy but toluene is the most comman solvent used in the adhesive coating for masking tape. It should remove the adhesive.
