That funky sticky remote

Ok so we’ve all over time had one of those remotes that just deteriorates and gets sticky

i have a Mc c46 many moons old that has a perfect remote.

but my newer mx150 remote already has gone the way of the Chinese rubber.

I almost thought of taking it apart and maybe clear coating it.

anyone ever screwed around w solving this kind of issue ?

thanks !!!!! And happy listening

Gets that sticky stuff off in a hurry!

Try a hot damp (not wet) rag, to wipe it. Then, let it dry. You may, also, try using 303 Protectant, on a rag, to wipe it clean.
