> Does any one know how to remove propolis from clothing, furniture and any > other item that can't be scraped? Propolis is soluable in alcohol. I suppose you could use whisky but you'll probably find it a lot cheaper to use some form of denatured alcohol. I usually use what we in the UK call methylated spirit. Soak some into a piece of rag and dab away. You need to allow a litle time for large lumps of propolis to soften first. BEWARE! If you're proposing to use it on furniture you should be aware that french polish, a common finish for wood, particularly in the past, is soluable in alcohol too. If in doubt test in a small and inconspicuous place first. -- Malcolm Roe Phone : +44 1442 345104 Crosfield Electronics Ltd Fax : +44 1442 343000 Hemel Hempstead, Herts.
