About contact cement, I have replaced a few sets of keytops that had  
been glued with contact, and found it VERY difficult to get to clean  
wood again. The stuff stays gummy and I wasn't able to figure out a  
solvent that actually did the job. I ended up scraping, wasting  
sandpaper, and cussing a good deal. Has anyone successfully dealt with  
this problem?
