Without wishing to sound like a green warrior I'm very much in favour of using everyday cleaning agents like washing up liquid for this kind of thing. Buying specialist products just encourages the generation of even more greenhouse gases and plastic waste. After all tobacco tar is essentially the same as any other type of grease/oil and can be dealt with as such.
