We have a nice pair of "rubberised" binoculars, but the "rubber" has

Any other possible ways of removing the stickiness? (Apart from angle
grinders, of course).

I removed the gunge on my rubberised binoculars with neat washing up liquid
but it took me an hour or so of repeated treatments. I smeared the washing
up liquid on and left it to soak in for about 10 minutes then rubbed it off
with a cloth also soaked in neat washing up liquid, and kept repeating that
until all the gunge came away. That was about a year ago, I have just
checked them and they are still gunge-free.
