Default Camo tape removal??

I put camo tape on my limbs and riser last hunting season to protect the finish on my shiny Mathews. I have taken the tape off only to be left with the sticky glue residue that doesn't seem to want to come off.

Any suggestions????

don't mean to laugh but LOL....
maybe fingernail polish remover will take it off....get the kind w/an acitone base...they make acitone and non-acitone remover. straight acitone will probably do the job but if you use that start on a very small test spot to make sure it's not gonna remove the finish from your limbs. start w/the fingernail polish remover first so if that works you won't have to chance the straight acitone removing your finish.

remember keep your back to the sun, your knife sharp, and your powder dry.
