I have a RAPT fermentation chamber that I've been using exclusively for distilling fermentations. Been pretty consistent about keeping it clean but I've noticed some staining down the left side (pictures). When I took off the fan shroud I noticed additional dripping stains. I'm guessing it's from the condensation on the copper tubing, so I have 3 questions.

1.  Can I insulate the tube with something to keep this from happening again?

2.  Is there a way to clean the stains? I've tried Lysol all purpose cleaner as well as a bleach solution and nothing will take the stains out.

3.  Also, there is a black sticky patch around a portion of one of the tube's.  It was almost coming off so I pressed it back. Anyone know what this is for and if I shouldn't have tampered with it?
