You know how when you've had a plaster on and when you take it off you end up with a sticky patch that goes black from fluff (even if you're not wearing black!) and it's practically impossible to get off?
Anyone got any tips on how to get rid of it? The patches are doing the same and the only thing that I can do to get rid of it is scrub until it hurts!!!

That's the easiest way and its what I use, I'm sure some folks will come up with other ways.

By the way if you do buy some of that stuff, you may just wonder how you ever managed with out it Wink

The site says: The only ingredient it lists is 'Petroleum Distillates'. It has a pleasant, citrus smell which I take to be a derivative of orange as orange seems to be a natural source of grease remover.

Vasaline and orange juice?
