what method do you guys use? do you use the burn test or use chemicals? i smoke so every thing i smell seems to smell like cigs or weed. is there a simpler way to know what you're going to clean other than a lot of experience?
  ------------- happy cleaning

After a few years you can be 95% sure just by looking, touching, etc. Otherwise, I do a burn test

Rick007,
  The burn test does not rely entirely on smell. Maybe a small article I wrote a while ago will help:  http://www.worldofclean.co.uk/index.php?show_aux_page=60 - http://www.worldofclean.co.uk/index.php?show_aux_page=60

How is it going on your board, Mr. Bolton?  I have found some great new ideas at your board.

Hi Mike,
  Traffic varies but we only really want the interesting contributions anyway - we prefer to let others be busy with the petty squabbles!
