Default Solvent for Gap-Seal tape prep

Hi y'all,

I have to replace the cloth tape gap seal after loosing the one on the rudder in flight. I removed the adhesive residue with GooOff, which worked really well and washed the area with denatured alcohol. The new tape still won't stick very strong. The glider is metal with PU-paint.
What surface prep solvent can you recommend to make the tape stick?
Thanks for the any advise,

Uli
