Lorlin, Avery,David,
	Saw a really neat technical years ago that has worked for me on the syrupy
stuff.....foam carpet cleaner. Do a small area, and shove cheese cloth down
in on top of the foam, and scritch it around with a screwdriver tip. After
you pull off the cheese cloth, you'll have much less toothbrush work to do.
The foam stuff is very low-moisture, and drying happens quickly. Be sure to
get as much of the loose stuff, first.

Right on, and the nylon does get funky real quick....can scratch some plate
finishes, too.

Doesn't every night-club-bar have at least one customer that asks "Don't
you know any other songs?" , when tuning.........
