Supplies Needed: Rubber gloves, soap, hot water, and lint-free cloth.
NOTE
Use a mild detergent such as Ivory - avoid soaps that have dies, moisturizing oils, or perfumes as they may damage the capstan. Read the label! Our R&D Lab has tested only Ivory Detergent. If you are uncertain about a detergent try it out in a 50:1 solution on a small area at the end of the capstan.
NOTE
If scrubbing action leaves debris on the surface, wait for the surface to dry completely, then follow the procedure listed above for “Removing Solid Debris”.
