Anyway, Glazit is about the best you can get as a polish, works great. I also have an orange based cleaner that takes off any kind of adhesives and labels. Another "Fantastic" kind of cleaner is concentrated and will remove dirt and everything else. I just spray the plastics with it and wash them in the sink. There is also Virex telephone disinfecting spray for handsets and things that you can't put in water. Salesman said it is usually used to spray down pay phones. Kills everything. -Hal CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 WARNING: Some comments made by me are known to the State of California to cause irreversible brain damage and serious mental disorders leading to confinement.

I once had a computer case where I wanted to remove a bunch of stickers. I had to use a heat gun and scrape them off. It was a big mess. We have a cleaner at the hardware store called Mighty Boss . I use it to clean our workbench where we do screen repairs. I don't know what is in it, but it works amazingly well. The bench is dark grey when I start, and bright white at the end of cleaning.

It works great when changing lines on 66 blocks and when coming in behind someone who used a sharpie. https://www.staples.com/webapp/wcs/...51&productId=89303&cmArea=SEARCH WWW.EmeryCommunications.com Authorized SMB Avaya Business Partner

I get a large bowl of hot water with Dawn diswashing liquid and soak the parts in that for several minutes. It also works very well for the coiled cords which are difficult to manipulate with just a rag and cleaning fluid. Bill
