If it's on the plastic bubble, I always use a little bit of regular GoJo with no pumice. I just take the tip of a soft cloth, dab in the GoJo and rub. Don't do it on the cardboard though.

i heard something about lighter fluid? or is that for removing the bubbles?
thanks ill try these, will it remove the stickiness sometimes left after the adhesive is gone? ill have to experiment on an expendable arctic destro, which by the way will become one of the most sought after figs in joe history and well all be kicking ourselves.LOL

I always use WD-40. I spray a little on a piece of paper towel. I wipe the residue on the card back or bubble in a circular motion for a few seconds. The residue comes off quickly. I then wipe with a damp paper towel to make sure no WD-40 is left on the card. Then I wipe with a dry towel. If you don't use too much WD or water and work quickly (takes me about a minute) you will get great results with no odor. I'm so comfortable with this method that I use it on vintage items.

Paint thinner, lighter fluid, Goo gone. They all work.
