Bourbon making my buttons sticky

Isopropyl soak?

 

A quick dunk, work the parts, and bast 'em dry with compressed air. Just don't leave them soaking and forget them!

stop mixing the bourbon and drink it straight

will spill more on the buttons and free them up no worries:D

Spray em with windex then press em a few times. They'll free up real nice:)

can of CRC 2-26 has never let me down.

A few deep breaths to hyper-ventilate and then put your mouth over the contol panel and suck that aged Bourbon out of there.:lol:lol (Just thinking of the mental picture). Hate to waste a good Bourbon - It wasn't that Slate stuff was it? Mark;)

Ha no not the Slate :lol I think it was Jack D and yes very wasteful.

 

After an initial clean-up I then flooded the buttons with Windex but it just hasn't done the trick. It was basically a full glass that flooded the control panel and was dripping through all the buttons. Not a pretty sight for blood-shot eyes at 2AM.

All the buttons are very sticky inside so I'm thinking a soak is the only real option - is it an option?

Try soaking them in Alcohol (But don't add any coke this time) as Jacob suggested :lol

Thanks guys for the tips. I'm not familiar with Isopropyl, where do you buy it? Would you then fully submerse the buttons in it?

Bunnings, in the metho section.

 

Yeah I'd submerse, then work them a few times till they are moving smooth again, then pull them out and blow them dry. An hour or so in full sun and they'll be ready to go back in

Great thanks, I'll give it a go.

 

Just back on a supplier of the buttons, I still need to order a few......just thought Highway might be the go??

I think it was Scotch atually.....hehehehehehe:unsure

better wait until after the NZ boy come visit.

I would soak them in HOT soapy water. while in the water shake vigorously

soaking them in alcohol is just a waste of alcohol IMO

try and wash hands after special moments?

Yeah, you kept saying it was Scotch. After you knocked it over, though, you thought it wasn't yours anymore, lol.

 

It's unfortunate that both machines have now had it happen.
