Spot Shot is probably like the old Carbona spot remover and has a solvent
that swells and softens the surface, much like MEK (methyl ethyl ketone)
does. Bad thing is that prolonged use causes the rubber/neoprene to get hard
and crumbly over time. I've cleaned typewriter/daisy wheel printer platens
with MEK int he past and it works very well for a couple years.
