New car syndrome? Where the plasticisers used to make the plastic run properly into the moulds sublime from the plastic mouldings/castings in the vehicle on a hot day and condense on the windows. Manufacturers are _supposed_ to allow the mouldings to cure (i.e. let the plasticisers leach away under controlled conditions) as they are quite nasty chemicals, despite giving cars that "new car" smell. Given the rapid turnover of digital products, I suspect that it is residual leachate from improperly cured castings. Removes easily but you may have to do some serious dismantling. I had to clear some off the lens system of my Craposcan. Didn't make it focus any better..... m
