Firming up rubber? (was: Cleaning rubber goo)

Well I currently have that problem with fancy cars of Italian origins, and knowledgeable people told me the real solution is to take the parts out and send them to: stickynomore.com (yes, their real name) Parts get returned in two weeks, look like new and never get sticky again. At least that?s what I am told, and everyone in the business seem to agree. Haven?t tried it yet. Don?t know the cost either, might be way over the top for a joystick! Another solution I heard was to wipe with isopropyl alcohol or goo-be-gone, but common sense tells me it?s just going to dissolve the top layer and your problem might reappear. Haven?t tried it either. Darn rubber parts.

On a similar note, does any have a solution to firm up rubber that is just starting to gooify? I have some joystick feet that are just starting to get sticky. -- -- tim lindner "Proper User Policy apparently means Simon Says."
