isopropyl alcohol is my solvent of choice these days: I have never found
a plastic that it damages and it's adequate as a solvent (not as good as
carbon tet, but it does take off grease).


That and the solvent uPVC cleaner that Wickes sell. Not sure what it is,
but it sure removes grease. And the gooey layer on items suffering from
"plastic cancer".


Oooh - ta for the tip. I need something to clean the uPVC sills in the
conservatory.
