I just received my Crack and the bubble wrap is stuck to the side of the PT-10 transformer with some tape residue. What’s the best way to clean this? Sorry I am new to this and just didn’t want to damage the component in any way.

Try a hairdryer.  Or a heat gun on an low heat setting. If the heat gun isn't adjustable, hold it farther away from the transformer.  The heat won't damage the transformer.

cheers, Derek

Rubbing alcohol or mineral spirits may also take it right off without disturbing the transformer varnish.
