Ableton Push 2 is a gummy, sticky TPE mess

Not sure if people are still suffering with this but I have found a way to clean it off easily.

I purchased a second hand push and it was suffering badly from this (picture attached had hoped to add more but new user restrictions suck).

I tried rubbing alcohol, contact cleaner, other solvents in small test areas and nothing was cutting it. I then had an idea to try Gumption (Australian cleaning paste not sure if this is available elsewhere) and it came off with only a little effort. Given that its a paste be mindful of getting it in ports but other than that it worked a treat!! Also tried some magic erasers and they also worked well. Seriously made a huge difference!! After photos will be in a post below

Hope this help!
