Default Rescue 911 for my Rollataq?

Help! My Rollataq is 3? 4? years old and not constantly used. I get
spotty coverage when I use it - probably because glue has dried deep
within the mechanisms. I have used the toothbrush on the grate under
hot running water with no real improvement. I hate to chuck it out but
I've finally realized that a broken tool is as good as having no tool at
all. Any suggestions on how to revive it?

Thanks for your help!

Jennifer

The Rollataq is the most annoying thing on the planet.
Run it under hot water. Then run in under more hot water. Let the
roller soak in hot water, then turn it a quarter turn, and soak hours
more, keep turning it and soaking it. Then run it under hot water
again.
Never keep it filled with glue when you're not using it daily.

Maybe you can clean it with UNDO. Undo takes the glue off of stuff. Connie k
