From: GUEST,Jery I usually search out a bottle of strong old ale, or any ale exceeding say 8% alchohol, carefully lubricate my gullet with the entire contents, and then breathe very closely on the pickguard, in short sharp breaths, before wiping quickly with a cotton based household duster. Both pickguard and myself are always much better afterwards, in that one looks as good as new and the other just thinks he is. |

Softened it first with your hands to make it pliable, then using a rolling type of blotting motion, with a little downward pressure, it will 'lift' the grime off. I emphasize lift because Blu-tack works best by blotting, not rubbing. Happily, it will even lift price sticker residue, a boon to my existence. |
