there is a thin slab of foam that has turned to crud.
I plan on removing this entirely - vacuuming away what
I can and cleaning the rest off with something - what
will dissolve this? I know that trying to get the gunk
from IBM foam off your hands is nearly impossible.
The best thing to do with that foam is to scrape as much as you can off
manually, since many of the solvents that will dissolve that gunk can
damage paint and plastic.
As for getting IBM goop off your hands, I use Fast Orange. The orange
oil and pumice tends to do the job.
