Hey people,
Just stumbled upon this place a few days ago, I thought I was the only one still gasping for a
Simmons fix!
Question for you lot, I've been given some SDS9 pads, and the previous owner didn't exactly
believe in cleaning them over the last 17, 18 years, so there's sticker residue on the bottoms
and caked on dirt and grime on the playing surfaces. Do you have any recommended cleaners
to at least get the filth off? I don't care too much that they're a little scuffed up, they will be used,
after all (driving them through a TMC6 triggering a Korg ER1, works like a charm), but in their
current state they look kinda like they've been dug out of the moors...

Cheers,
Stu
