What is the best way to clean my PEZ dispensers?
[ WARNING: Try these methods at your own risk. They have been recommended by fellow Pezheads, but be careful with those collection treasures! -CS ] A toothbrush and warm water with a mild dish washing detergent works well. Others have also used toothpaste, rubbing alcohol, and WD-40 on unpainted areas. To get rid of sticky residue, try vegetable oil and a paper towel then use soap and water to get rid of the oil residue. Cotton q-tips are good for scrubbing small areas. If you plan to take the dispenser apart, be sure to practice on a common dispenser until you can disassemble and reassemble a dispenser without breakage. Also be sure to dry the dispenser completely after cleaning to prevent the spring and pin from rusting.
