Go about halfway down....

Um, other than that though...can't you get some real stuff somewhere? Err...try it, and then report back with the results

Just use toothpaste?

Yep toothpaste. Since Vegemite apparently is an Australian thing, maybe crunchy peanut butter too.

Only reason I ask is because we use a lot of it at work,so I thought I'd ask around.Maybe next time I clean up my hsf I'll try it out.Thx.

Apparently it puts off some noxious fumes ("Use in well ventilated area"). I don't think I'd use it - even in a pinch.
