Mfc-9700 laser printer. Label was stuck to drum. Label removed, but some adhesive remains. Isopropyl alcohol will not remove it. What is a safe product to use that will not damage drum? Thanks.

I have tried many products to clean drums on brother and oki machines and found none realy works. Only product here that works some times, but not always is MCkenic fast dry, dont know if you have that there!
Window cleaner can usually remove the glue, and it will not damage amophorous silicone drums (black/gray/dark green surface)
Kyocera's old type organic drums are light green like most others, and I know these don't get damage with window cleaner a soft cloth, but I cannot vouch for other makes..
THANKS FOR THE SUGGESTIONS.... Unfortunately the window cleaner or toner trick won't work to remove the adhesive, which "baked" on when it hit the hot drum mechanism. Someone on another site suggested lighter fluid, which probably will remove it, but afraid of what it might do to the drum surface. HELP!
The best stuff by a long shot is Dispersant. It's the liquid toner from the early Savins. It remove adhesive marvelously. It dries quickly. It doesn't damage organics or A-Si (or Selenium Tellurim drums, or Cadmium drums).
Unfortunately it's really hard to find these days. A fine substitute is kerosene lamp oil. Just don't scrub too much! Put a few drops on a cotton pad and just hold it to the spot for a few minutes, then wipe away the adhesive with as little rubbing as possible. =^..^=
