It doesn't leave a crystalline residue AND it removes felt marker.
When I was outside today fooling with an Apple Monitor for a IIe that I'd
let
sit in the sun for a few weeks, I put on and scrubbed in the Resolve, then
wiped it with a cotton towel.
Then I put on the bleach, let it sit and scrubbed it in. (out of doors).
Then I went back to the Resolve. Shockingly, that monitor became a WHOLE lot
less yellowed when I was finished. Looks like near new.
Remember scrubbing with the teflon pan sponge is a big part of the process.
As is letting the stuff stay coated all over the item you're cleaning for a
time. But I was impressed!
