I have quite a few kits in my dungeon that have tape and rubber band marks o the boxes. It is horrors to a collector. But, while moving my daughters furniture I seen something on the hook I had to try. It is a roll of plastic tape that sticks to itself, but, not to what ever it is holding shut like kit boxes. About two wraps and the box will not come open. Also has not left residue on box cause there is none. Thought I would let people know incase no one has sent this. Later, DOC

PS: Mine was purchased at a U-Haul Dealer.

They have had somthing similar for years it is called Saran Wrap or any of the plastic cling wraps used in the kitchen. Mine lasted through 20 years in the attic. When I sold some of my older models on the bay, I found out just how much a box in good condition is worth.

by any act, error, or omission, I have, intentionally or
unintentionally, displayed any breedist, disciplinist, sexist, racist,
culturalist, nationalist, regionalist, localist, ageist, lookist, ableist,
sizeist, speciesist, intellectualist, socioeconomicist, ethnocentrist,
phallocentrist, heteropatriarchalist, or other violation of the rules of
political correctness, known or unknown, I am not sorry and I encourage you
to get over it.

You can go to staples and pick up a roll of the stuff with a dispenser. We use this stuff at work and buy it by the carton. 18 rolls to the carton and a roller in the box. We go through thousands of them a year and thats why I used it to protect over 100 of my kits. No I didn't get it free at work.
