I dont know how Gunslinger does his...but what I do with my 25th figure bubbles for recards is to use laquer thinner to take off the old paper and ink that is stuck on them. You have to be VERY CAREFUL though because lacquer thinner is a solvent and it will melt the plastic if you dont wipe it off quickly.
I havent used any non solvent based cleaners to remove the old materials (such as googone) so I dont know if it works or not. All I know is that the paper and ink left on those bubbles are a pita to get off and it usually takes me about an hour to do one bubble...even with the lacquer thinner.
This is my technique for now anyways.
