Oven cleaner will etch into some plastics , so check on the rear first.
Its great for removing tobacco stain and with caution , its etching will
remove sun-browning of white platic cases.
Assuming this rubber coating is for anti-slip reasons, is there any
mobile phone/tablet model with this treatment?

Yes, I have an STK mobile phone with this very thin spray coated type
antislip on the back panel. No idea if it will gooize in time, probably!
Even Sony used it on handy cams etc years ago. Awful mess to clean up
and very difficult; I remember it was 'relatively' easy to get the
coating that had already gone gooey, off - but the coating hadnt all
turned yet and the ungooy stuff in patches was almost impossible to
remove without aggressive type thinners (toluene, MEK etc). C+


I've just realised the blue rubbery part-covering of an Oral-B electric
toothbrush is going tacky and failing in a similar manner.
