I'm just wondering - if at some point I want to remove the tape,
will that be reasonably easy?
Is there any chemical one can use for this purpose?


Any suggestions or advice gratefully received.


Usually not a problem - velcro is mostly stronger than the glue.

The problem for me, is that the velcro comes away, but much of the glue
remains.

Yup. But if it's on tiles should be easier than some surfaces to remove
from. Evostick solvent works for most rubber based glues.
