shrink wrap film residue- how to remove


Hello,

I have high gloss speakers. I needed to shrink wrap the speakers to protect them as my unit needed a spray using chemicals. I place a drop sheet over them as well. I removed the shrink wrap and there are marks or residue on my speakers from the shrink wrap. I used a fine microfibre cloth and some distilled water but the marks are still there. Is this something that will take time to come out with repeated wipe downs?

Any suggestions on how to gently remove the residue from my high gloss speakers? Much appreciated.

Audioman, you don’t mention what finish you have, is it a veneer wood finish or a high gloss paint?

The top of the can says, "Enriches, beautifies and protects wood, metal, leather and plastics". As to whether it will remove your film, I'm not sure because I have no direct experience with your issue. I do believe it could be beneficial without causing harm. You could always try it on a small spot and see how it works. It certainly isn't expensive either.
I used Duck brand adhesive remover from Target to remove really old sticky Scotch tape someone had wrapped the outer head of tennis racquet with maybe 15 years ago. Amazingly the racquet, a very expensive one, a Federer Pro Staff, now looks brand spanking new. Dunno if it will work in your case, might be worth a shot. 
Novus is a plastic polish and scratch remover. As wolf suggested, use No.1, the finest grit. Great stuff, I use it in restoring the "wraps" on vintage drums. Another great product I use, to remove tape glue residue on LP jackets and CD cases, is named Bestine, a very gentle cleaner. It’s kind of difficult to find, as it was discontinued when the company making it was sold a few years back. It has just recently been reintroduced, but I haven’t found a retail source for it yet. Goo Gone is worth considering. Whatever you do, do NOT put paste wax over the residue!
