Best products for cleaning smoke

docs - 2010-08-19 11:17

Smoke on your boombox ? What could be worse other than it smashed up in bits ?

Which products are nice to the boomer while removing that awful brown/yellow tinge of someones lungs ? I don't mind a bit of elbow grease but soapy water here is simply poop.

Any help appreicated.

i use baby wipes DOCS, not ever really had any bad yellow units, but have had one or two in the past that was quiet yellow and i used baby wipes and they worked a treat Nod Yes cocktail sticks for the nooks and cranny,s too Wink

Yeah, I always use baby wipes gentle on your box and remove the grime without too much effort. I use cocktail sticks aswell along with cotton buds and small brushes.
The best wipes I have used are Morrisons value in the yellow packets.

I use a range of products

dettol spray - which will kill germs and still de-grease

mr muscle spray - orange or vinegar will help brake down the years of build up grime

turtle wax/bug and tar remover - bloody great stuff - degreases and polishes)learn how much to rub and how much to use

any spary degreaser will work well - just be aware of what will strip writing of and melt any thing

I also use tooth picks and tooth brushes are a god send for getting into most boxes
