Sticky chassi on Thinkpad 600E

[Kaviar]

So I recently got my hands on a 600E, and I absolutely love it, it’s a fantastic retro machine. But there is one thing that really bothers me, over the years the plastic has gone bad and feels sticky. I've tried removing it with cleaning alcohol but without any luck.

Is there a way to fix this?

Thanks in advance!

Okey, will try the credit card + Isopropyl Alcohol method when I get my hands on the items. Thanks
