Thank you for all the comments! I knew you Cuties would have all the answers!
The lady at the sewing machine told me that she uses cheap aftershave. I use Goo Gone or Goof Off. Both work, it depends which I have on hand.
i use baby wipes to clean got the idea from one of the cuties can not remember who works like a charm
An old tooth brush, liquid soap and warm mater work perfectly for me.
I have used an aerosol cleaner from my dealer...it worked, but it was expensive...now I use GooGone in a spray bottle from WalMart...it works great, less mess than the aerosol...and it's only about $3.50 for a 16 oz. bottle...goes a long way...lay down an old towel, spritz, let sit for about a minute..wipes right off...I also keep baby wipes handy for little quick stickies...
I rub a little peanut butter on the really sticky areas then clean it real good with Dawn dish washing soap to get all the oils off.
I know there are commercial cleaners but I just let mine soak in warm water with a little dish detergent. I then use the scrub part of a sponge to clean off the residue and have sparkling clean hoops with little effort.
