Hi All,

I have a weird problem.  I have a 2001 Honda Civic DX in MINT shape.
As you know, there aren't a lot of places to hang stuff, so when I
bought this hanging air freshener, I hung it from one of the plastic
vents in the centre instrument console.  After a few days being in the
sun, I notice that where the air freshener was contacting the console
plastic now has this sticky residue on it.  I tried scrapping it off,
but it marked up the console.  It then dried and now it looks awful
with all my scratch marks in it.  I tried using WD-40 to remove the
(now dried) shiny residue, but nothing happens.  Short of taking a
brush and scrubbing the residue off, what options are there?

Has anyone had this problem?

Help!!

Derek

You might try some stuff named Goo-b-Gone (that is the approximate
name).  It's one of those things that was 'order before midnight' on TV
for a while, but it really does work on a lots of sticky stuff.

But just like anything else, try it on a spot where it doesn't matter
before using it where it shows.
