Removing spilled white-out

[Owen Greyling]

Hi Barbara,

 

I'm hiding out in my shop today so had the time to try a little experiment.
I put "Ultra Universal Correction Fluid" on a few old plastic keytops,
heated them under a heat lamp to dry, then tried different solvents to see
what would happen. The best, hands down is a product called "Goo Gone. A
little elbow grease cleaned the white out, and polished the keys with no
damage. Manufactured by Magic American Corp. in Ohio. 1-800-321-6330.

 

Good luck, 

Owen

Hi Folks,

 

I just received this e-mail--any suggestions?

 

Thanks,

A client of mine spilled white-out on her plastic (old Wurlitzer spinet)
piano

keys. She tried to get it off with water, to no avail. I called a stationery

store and they don't have a clue but will try to find out the chemical
composition

of the stuff and get back to me. It's an important little piano for a poor
church,

so I want to help them. Any ideas?
