>HOW TO REMOVE CIGARETTE RESIDUE FROM YOUR RADIO EQUIPMENT.
>
>1)  Windex Window Cleaner, with ammonia, is the most popular.  It is said to
>not leave any residue.
>
>2)  Simple Green is popular ( a grocery store product).  But one person
>mentioned that it does leave a residue that attracts dust.
>
>3)  WD-40, used with Simple Green.  It seems that WD-40, by nature of its
>properties, would leave a residue that would heat-up and burn in the right
>environment.
>
>4)  A product called "Oil-Flo) will nearly dissolve the cigarrete residue in
>anything.  Care should be used as it will dissolve adhesive.  After using
>it, wash the surface with water.
>
>5)  Miller and Stephenson used to make a spray solvent called TP-35 that
>dissolved tar from tobacco smoke.  It may be a blend of isopropanol and
>freon TF.
>
TP-35 is not a conductor of electricity.  

>6)  Wash or spray with 1 part ammonia with 4 parts water.
