Dare I ask if anyone knows if Jif/Cif will remove tobacco smoke (nicotine)
residue from plastics as well? IPA-170 seems to do some good, but doesn't
remove all of it (there's plenty left to make the plastic stink when it gets
warm). This is on a TV, BTW, so "getting warm" is pretty much all it does
besides displaying a picture and emitting sound...
