This one pretty much speaks for itself.Don't store your synths in Anvil foam cases for an extended period of time. The foam breaks down over the years.

"This kind of foam destroyed the finish of my Chroma :-( It sat in an Anvil case for a long time."
eeek...runs to check Prophet-600 now residing in foam laden anvil case.
ReplyDeleteI've seen too many Chapman Sticks trashed by the case.
ReplyDeleteanyone know how to get this sticky foam stuff off of gear?
ReplyDeleteI have an arp avatar that suffered this fate.
Eeks, P600 in anvil here too. Maybe there's something that could be wrapped around the synth to protect it?
ReplyDeleteGoo-Gone will probably clean most of this up. Also, buy a couple of yards of velvet from a fabric store and cut to fit. That's what nice guitar cases are lined with.
ReplyDeleteWarm water goes a long way, actually. You just have to repeat the process a lot.
ReplyDeleteI was gonna ask the same question on how to get rid of this stuff. I just bought a Solina String Ensemble from a guy who had left it in his basement in a foam case for awhile and it is covered with this stuff.
