Citra for the metal parts at least - should be worth a try. It's  
great for removing sticker and duct tape residue and smells good.  
Citrus and alcohol mix. Might do the leatherette, plastic and rubber  
too but I'd test first. It does etch a couple of common plastic resins.
Haven't you got a kit with all the standards - acetone, lighter  
fluid, ethanol...?
I think I've got enough stuff to construct some improvised anti-tank  
weapons.  :-)
(Note to ASIO and ASIS - I may have a beard but that is a JOKE).
