nope. does it make much of a difference?

[DS23]

don't have a backup for the windows.

No sugar and you might get away with it once it's dried out. Sugar in there and it will be buggered.

On a scale of kit killers it goes roughly, least worst to worst :

Water
Tea
Coffee
Tea/Coffee with sugar
Diet Softdrinks
Full fat soft drinks.

The last is pretty much a guarenteed kill. Whatever the actual liquid doesn't kill will end up coated in sugar and other gunk as it dries
