      i use a product called gumsolv which comes in an aeresol can and dissolves glue a treat. stinks like buggery though.

        Have you tried methylated spirit as this should be safe on the rod.

            I would agree with keegy, either that or Turpentine, that won't hurt anything either. Just apply a small amount to a cloth and gently remove it, then dry with a different cloth. Best done outside for H & S reasons and not while having a tab lol.
