Ian -
 
There is a product here in the states called De-Solv-it that works great. It's manufactured
in Chandler, Az. but the company name I can't make out because the label has been
dissolved ;>) Don Aslett's "Cleaning Center" sells it too. The number is 1-800-451-2402.
A one pint container sells for $5.50 and they ship to Canada.
