I'll second and third that... the white lanolin hand cleaner is the
stuff...particularly for delicate front panels, and hard to clean dried up
wrinkle finish

The best I've found for removing nicotine stains (coatings?) is GoJo Hand
Cleaner. The WHITE jelly-like version, NOT the orange with pumice.
For covers, etc., just put it on and rub in with your fingers, then rinse
off. Where you don't want water, just wipe off with soft rags, Q-Tips,
whatever to get into the tight places.
Interiors often respond to storage with clothes dryer softener sheet(s)
and wrapped in plastic or in a plastic bag for a few days.

Some were longer in his possession than others which means the layer of
nicotine is thicker than the new items. These are the first
nicotine-soaked-rice-boxes (or anything for that matter) that I have
ever had in my possession.
The question is.....any idea on how to clean this stuff? The smell of
smoke is quite noticeable. A quick cleaning with a j-cloth and water
cleaned off a layer of dust and some of the easier to clean yellowing.
