Cleaning Plastic

Greg,

I have found that a biodegradable solvent called "Citra-Solv" works well
for most high-quality plastic cases. It's pretty potent stuff used full
strength, so the trick is to put it on a cloth and rub down the case and
then to clean it off with water. You probably want to use rubber
gloves. If the case is really plastic, and not painted, it takes off
the outer film. (If you leave it on full strength, it will dissolve the
plastic!) You want to do just enough and not too much. Most cases come
out looking new.
