Clarification:
 Well, the label for Goo Gone reads "NOTE: DO NOT USE ON SILK, WOOL,
LEATHER, VINYL, RUBBER, LATEX. MAY DULL SOME PLASTICS."  and also
"CONTAINS PETROLEUM DISTILLATES".  It doesn't say what the exact
ingredients are.  I suspect the orange smell may be from d-limonine but
it doesn't say.  You can call MAGIC AMERICAN CORP at (800)321-6330 for
more info on this product.  

i was, however, referring to a cleaner they call "Techtastic" that is
pure d-limonine. I know (from experience)  it attacks rubber, ABS
plastic, and other things.  Basically, the advice holds for about any
chemical.  Be careful what you get it on.
