<HTML>Try something with a water based solvent. Most over the counter degreasers contain it. Or if your super ambitious find some delaminate, a strong citrus degreaser that is more effective, but costs more. You need this type of product to break down petroleum based chemicals. Plain rubbing alchohol won't work, but pure denatured alchohol most likely will since it is a stronger solvent. Good luck with the problem trim.
