Masking tape problem - Aug 18th, 08, 05:47 PM

I've got a tough problem. Does anyone know how to remove masking tape that's been on the exterior of aluminum windows for a few years? I've tried Goof Off but that will not even make a dent in it. Any ideas out there?

Soak it with water. Use a dripping wet rag and just keep blotting it till it starts to give and then you should be able to peel it off.
