Umm, I will have to disagree Ken, but see if this is the same stuff as your
"spray electronic switch cleaner".  I used a good electronic contact cleaner
that was supposed to be perfectly safe on plastics, on my remote controlled
race car.  Got some on the lexan cover, and it attacked the plastic in a
major way.  It did not disolve it, but rather made it brittle and weak, and
it fell apart.

 Not a huge deal, replacement covers were only $10, and I had to paint it.
Not like a GTS body piece.

What ever stuff you buy to clean it with READ THE LABEL!  A lot of spray
brake cleaners will destroy the O rings and any other plastic type things.
Best to find a spray electronic switch cleaner.  They are much more
expensive
but will not dissolve synthetic plastic stuff.  I found this out on another
vehicle.  It was more expensive to have the unit replaced than a can of good
cleaner.
