Terrence,

I would go a step further than alcohol.  Try sandpaper.  Typically, it's not
that the rollers are dirty, but that they are so worn that they've lost
their grip.  Sandpaper roughs them up and gives them grip again.  I have
done this with HP II's, IIP's, III's, IIIP's, 4L's, 5L's, 4P's, and 5P's,
all with a realative measure of success.  Sometimes there is no substitute
for new rollers, but finding them is another issue alltogether.

Hope this helps.

Kyle
