What Tape Is Non-Residue on Plastic and Doesn't Damage 210gsm Paper Board?

Howdy

I'm making few paper boards (https://www.officeworks.com.au/shop/officeworks/p/quill-a4-b…) with various cutouts to stick over small video monitors to help better visualise non-standard video ratios.

What tape should I use to ensure:

it doesn't leave residue on the video monitor's plastic, which does get a bit warm during operation.
doesn't take off a thin layer off the paper board roughing up its surface.
tape will easily come off on both surfaces, the tape is on for a few hours at a time, never longer.

Tape strength is not a concern as board is light and monitor is mostly stationary.

Thanks heaps

Magic tape. Not sure if it still exists.

Edit: yes it does

  This thing? I thought about it and wasn't sure whether it'd pull off some of the surface layer fluff off the paper board?

  Yes, we use tons of this at work. No sticky marks, comes off clean every time.

Blu Tack®?

Dust removal tape has the lowest adhesive properties.

If the monitor has a reasonably large bezel you may be better off using clips? or you may be able to get away with folding the top of the cardboard over to make a hook similar to those over the door shelves.

  The paper hook is a great idea, will try this instead, thanks!
