The icky-pick <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Icky-pick> or monkey-s*** as my telco friends call it... that is on "normal cables" is clear and a PITA to get off. I also find that it "runs" into everything when it gets hot.
I moved to Western Washington State to avoid the running of the gel when it gets hot. I also started to use the cable from Mowhawk: 5EXHO4P24-BK-R-MOH-NR (aka: Mohawk "Megalan" Flooded) from my local Graybar distributer and I like it a whole-lot-better. The icky-pick in this cable is white and non-sticky. It feels like hand lotion. It is easy to remove from hands and clothing. If you do have to work the clear stuff, do 2 things: 1. Charge extra. Really the labor involved in that c**p is just not worth it. 2. Buy some of the wipes or spray sold here (or at graybar): http://www.polywater.com/hydrasol.html This stuff is awesome... I keep some of the pre-moistened individual wipes in the tool-box just in case. ryan On Fri, May 29, 2009 at 10:28 AM, Brian Rohrbacher <br...@reliableinter.net>wrote: > Complaints about what is leaking out all over their desk/floor........ > > > Butch Evans wrote: > > On Fri, 2009-05-29 at 13:26 -0400, Josh Luthman wrote: > > > Customer complaints???
