I've been asked to do the insides of an empty house and there is a lot of Sellotape residue on there as well as masking tape been left on for ages.

Best way? Scraper / and / or other method?

Regards
Matt

I get this week in week out doing the inside of shop windows. I get loads to take off. Simplest way is the quickest and most efficient. Soak it all, wait a minute and use a good sharp scraper, Unger 4 inch is best. You can mess around with chemicals if you wish, not so quick and more time consuming.

DE-SOLV-IT citrus based solvent I found that there is no need to use it at full strength.   
Scrap tape off, Clean with micro fibre cloth wetter with De-solv-it water down to get the rest of the residue off.
