Europa-List: Sticky pre-skinned surfaces

Greetings all,

I've noticed in the past couple of weeks that my factory pre-skinned 
ailerons, stab, rudder, antiservo tabs and flaps have become sticky to the 
touch. We've been getting a fair amount of rain of late and the relative 
humidity has been fairly high (60%-70%) for several weeks. Is this something 
to be concerned about? Anybody know what is causing the stickiness? The parts 
have been stored in a temperature controlled environment going no lower than 
about 55F and no higher than 75F. Handling them for fitting flaps, ailerons, 
stab, etc., has resulted in fingerprints showing up on the surfaces. What's a 
good way to clean them up before finish?

Regards,
