Lee, Where I have seen the problem is mainly on the curly cord on the hand set where the outer sheath of the cable is splitting

everybody is talking about wipes but they will not clean all the nooks and crannies on equipment as I said before the anti static foam cleaner and a soft small brush all the dirt rolls of and it is not harm full to plastic also seems to help stop build up of new grime

... not to mention Cotton Buds!

Plus a whole arsenal of relatively non-aggressive cleansing agents ... most of which should be available from your local hardware store (shop) - if you're lucky enough to still have one in town!

Thought this might interest some...........................

Yes; interesting.

If only the residue from computer viruses were so easily dealt with!

Thanks, RonS, that's a very useful document. We've seen surface crazing developing on some equipment cases here, so need to look again at our cleaning policy.
