Melting asprin does the trick! I will keep this in my toolbox of tricks for sure. One thing to note if you want to try this method, "it releases some nasty fumes" is an understatement. It's pretty nasty stuff. It also leaves a coating on the wire itself, but you can just wipe that coating off. With the ion trap repaired and back in place we have a nice bright raster again! Now on to the next problem...the vertical section.
