Masking tape goo Removal
Ok I have been trying to find a safe way to remove the tape goo left behind I have tried different things and many of them remove some if my painted surface right along with the goo!
I found a cheap way to get it off and not ruin any paint I use baby oil it removes the goo does not fog up the window and will not remove the paint off your freshly painted bit!
Try it you will love it!

Goo Gone ™ is some kick ass stuff for removing "goo", not "splooge".
I haven't tried it to remove goo over paint, so I'm not sure if it would damage the paint, but I'm thinking probably not.

That stuff is pretty similar to lighter fluid, which will remove paint.

Are you sure you guys aren't thinking of nail polish remover or something? Because I'm not so sure Goo Gone and lighter fluid even share a single ingredient.
Anyways, here's a test with some Goo Gone.
A shot of the body before Goo Gone, during Goo Gone, and after Goo Gone. Look, no hazing, no paint stripping, it's all gravy. It didn't remove paint at all.
Remember, I put some Goo Gone on a paper towel and rubbed one out (yaw!), like you should.
Do not dip the whole damn car in a vat of Goo Gone and let is sit! Use your heads if you're gonna use this stuff.
P.S.
I only did the roof of the car as I don't want to remove my decals. But it confirms the test that this is probably safe to use on painted shells as long as you use common sense and the directions.

Yah goo be gone is great you can soak a whole hot wheel package in it and it will just remove the glue holding the plastic dome on and not even mess the cardboard up!
The only reason I was recomending Baby Oil is that Goo be Gone is more expensive and Baby Oil is around the house most of the time.
As for Goof Off it will not only remove the paint it will melt the body and make the plastic cloudy!
