Re: Repro label removal?
I'm surprised not more people do this; I've been doing this since I was a kid (not even sure how I started, but might've been discovered just through experimentation), and I've brought it up here a few times as well in the past years.
1) Take a small piece of masking tape (masking tape is my favorite to use, because the adhesive is stronger than scotch tape or electrical tape, but not as crazy as duct tape).
2) Put the piece of tape over the leftover glue
3) Rub it a little bit
4) Pull off quickly like you just waxed your leg (not that I'd know anything about that)
5) Repeat as necessary (the same piece of tape can actually be reused multiple times)
Basically, the leftover sticker adhesive will want to stick to the stickier substance (in this case, the masking tape adhesive) rather than the plastic. When you lift the masking tape, it should peel off some/most of the leftover glue. Just repeat as needed until you have a clean, glue-free surface.
