Hello, I bought a Dell Studio laptop from the British Heart Foundation. I swapped hard drives and it works well.
The problem is the outer case, in particular the lid, is sticky. It may have once been a 'soft feel' finish on the lid, now my fingers stick to it. Not pleasant.
So far I have tried Elbow Grease (good stuff, get it Home Bargains), an alcohol based glass cleaner, brake cleaner and good old Fairy Liquid. None have made any difference.
Any suggestions? Spray it with clear lacquer? Dust it in talcum powder?
