I got a couple of bottles of "Rubber Rejuvenator / Platen Cleaner" made by
Tech Spray. Their part number is 1612-2SQ -- 2 oz bottle. The
ingredients, according to the bottle, are D-Limonene and Chlorinated paraffin.
It helped the internal rollers on my HP card reader quite a bit, but did
not return the pick roller (which currently has a consistency somewhere
between silly putty and glue -- anybody got one of these things that hasn't
turned to glue yet?) to a usable state, though it even helped that just a
little.
Use at your own risk. It is marked "For professional or industrial use only".
Non Ozone depleting. 8-)
Can only be shipped via ground. I got my thru Newark Electronics.

Any opinions on "rubber rejuvinent"? I want
to give all my printers a once
over during the holidays, and I've heard this stuff is just the ticket for
lazy pickup rollers etc. Web searchs have shown a couple different aerosol
products, but I think it also comes in bottles. Tomorrow I do some local
hunting at a couple big electronics parts stores. Anybody have experience,
or preferences?
