What Ralph said, Watch out for petro and carbon tet cleaners. The plastic will instantly melt. Use ammonia based cleaners such as kitchen cleaner spray, 409, fantastic, purple power. Soak, rinse well, and dry with a hair drier to prevent rust. Light drop of 3-n-1 will keep them floating to make good contact with the latch. -Eddie- Houston, TX ----- Original Message ----- > Bruce, > > I think Eddie has a good answer for "sticky" plastic ends.
