window buttons (on door) sticky S70 1998

posted by  someone claiming to be Gavin Lim on  Mon Nov 26 03:00 CST 2001 [RELATED]

Anyone has this problem? My window switches on the doors are becoming sticky (or tacky) on the surface. Any way to polish or smoothen them out?

Thanks!

    Gavin,

    I'd be careful about following Ian's suggestion to "rub the hell" out of them. They are covered with a rubberized coating and you SHOULD feel some "stickiness."

    I'd suggest a gentle cleaning with a vinyl/rubber cleaner or mild soap solution only.

    Bryan

    Yeah, I've gotten that. On my turn signal and wiper switches too actually. Easiest way to clean them is to get some armor all general purpose cleaner (not the shining stuff that wont clean it off real well) spray it on a paper towel and rub the hell out of the switches until it stops being sticky.
