masking tape WILL leave a residue... i can confirm this myself...as i had to buy a bottle of expensive Goo Gone to get rid of the residue on my car windscreen


anyway...ANY form sticky tape is NOT a good idea for cable sleeving....its a friggin horrendous idea...why are u so insistent on it?? theres a whole lot more cons than pros

if u dont wanna do sleeving properly, ge tthe spiral wraps or the cable wraps. no molex removaal required.....hell of alot easier to do than taping the cables and with better effect.

tapes will be srticky, ur cables will be ridiculously stiff.. and believe me its gonna be fugly. especially if u use masking tape.
