Epoxy: Safe Solvent????
By:Michael McCluskey

What is a good solvent to clean masking tape residue off of cured epoxy. I obviously don't want to damage the epoxy or affect future coats. I've been using alchohol but there is a slight residue that won't seem to come off. The tape was protecting the edge of the hull while I stripped the deck and has been in place for an embarassingly long time.

Thanks for the help.
