Post Rubberband residue
I know there was a thread on here but couldn't find. Anyway I have a Grody/Cure piece that has a rubberband holding the pumpkin mask on and of course it has dried out and has left a good amount of residue behind. How can I remove this? Its the back of the head so should I leave it? Don't want to damage it :x

Ah yes, thanks for the link. Mine is an hp piece and not sure if thats the same paint type and if it will get ruined. Also putting a new rubberband on the pumpkin mask is gonna suck.

A product called Goo Gone can clean this up as well.

I have used Goo Gone to remove very old vinyl marks on vintage toys...

get some elastic nylon string from a craft store it will last way longer and leave no residue
