Subject:Goopy, melted drainboard bumps
From:Mike \"Rocket J Squirrel\" Elliott
Date:Fri, 21 Jul 2006 11:59:26 -0700

Mellow Yellow has a fold-down stainless steel drainboard that lays on
the stovetop. VW put four beige rubbery bumps on the underside of the
sink/stove cover to press against the top of the drainboard when the
drainboard is in the upright position. Possibly to keep it from
rattling. Over time, or maybe due to heat, those four beige rubber bumps
have sorta melted, and they've run and blobbed. I've been staring at the
melts wondering how to get them off. Going at them with a solvent looks
potentially messy. Scraping could get ugly, the way I do it. So I'd like
some advice.

If this request yields as many responses as I got yesterday on how to
keep the glovebox from falling open, I'll have more good ideas than I'll
know what to do with.
