Just contact cleaner and the eraser assuming there's no horrible clumps of corrosion. I spray and start erasing. It will just be wet at first, then weird and slippery, then it dries and just feels like regular erasing and you pick up all the gunk. Depending on how dirty, might have to do it more than once, but just erase until dry and you start getting the eraser bits, then use a brush or can of air to get them off.Skullz wrote:I have some electrical contact cleaner at home. With the contact cleaner you just spray it on the contacts and use cloth to wipe off? Do you have to use anything else after that?
No water, that's going to make more corrosion because its going to sit in crevaces. If you can't use electrical cleaner, they you want the least water in the alcohol so it evaporates quickly.One thing to note, I've always heard that if you use rubbing alcohol, you're not supposed to use straight alcohol, but dilute it with water.
Most labels will get screwed up if you try to erase marker. On the cart it should be just fine unless you don't have the right king of eraser. You do not want to use a pink eraser or one of the hard drafting kind with the sand in it. You want a soft vinyl eraser like a Magic Rub. Pentel click erasers will probably work too, but you'll probably want the bigger work surface of the magic rub. You can see th epictures in my other thread, there's no loss of gloss.For the people that use Magic Erasers, for the hard to remove marker, once it's removed it sometimes leaves a dull spot on the cartridge. Anyone figure out how to re-shine that area?
