Default Re: How can I remove the smell of stale cigarette smoke from a handset cord ?

I've put the cord back on the phone and the smell has largely faded. Hopefully time and fresher air will deal with any lingering stink.

I imagine having to handle, repair and even discard telephones similarly contaminated was an occupational hazard for GPO field engineers and those involved in the wipe-up process. I'm glad I only had one smelly cord to deal with.
