| Jan 30, 2018 at 17:53 | comment | added | user157879 | @Jojostack, yes please! I would be interested in knowing as much about the method as there is out there. | |
| Jan 30, 2018 at 15:50 | comment | added | Jojostack | @ user157879 Generally is used Acetone. If you are interested also in details for scotch tape methodology I can post them | |

| Jan 27, 2018 at 0:45 | comment | added | user157879 | I see... the reason I am asking this question on chemistry.se is to avoid reinventing the wheel, surely this problem has been thoroughly studied in some research article. | |
| Jan 26, 2018 at 9:57 | comment | added | Gimelist | No idea. Trial and error? Ask the manufacturer of the tape? | |
| Jan 26, 2018 at 9:44 | comment | added | user157879 | How thoroughly do those solvents work? The plastic part of the tape would dissolve easily in acetone, but thoroughly does the adhesive dissolve? I wouldn't expect it to go to the monomer level, but l may be wrong. | |
