 Re: Rubbing Alcohol on plastic?

Alcohol, water, soap etc. may be used to remove the smelly residues, but you have to dissolve the stuff by wetting it with your agent and then mechanically remove it (swiping). You have to reach all the really small and difficult corners.

Hydrogen peroxide could do the job in another way: degrading the residues. Just apply generously, after losing its activity (releasing oxygen) it ends up as clean water. It can be bought in small bottles for bleaching hair, removing stains etc.

Because of the bleaching effect be careful not to spill it. And apply it on a piece of cork first to see if it doesn't hurt the cork.
