Blue Marks Under Ferrule?

[HoustonInt]

Hello, I was replacing a tip today and saw dark marks under the ferrule that looks like something was bleeding from the top down. Any idea what causes this or any way to fix it other than replacing the ferrule?

Thanks, John

What he said. Might have to use some acetone and 1000 grit to clean it off

A fresh piece of 400,denatured alcohol and a Magic Eraser will probably help.

Acetone could be a disaster,unless used in very small amounts. If used incorrectly,it will even soften the melamine ferrule pictured here. Tommy D.

Thanks everyone. I was able to clean it up with denatured alcohol, magic eraser and sandpaper.
