Delete custom metadata fields

This is not a full fix unless you were only use a text datatype on your custom metadata. Other datatypes may be set to a zero’d value, like $0.00.

property attributesToScrub : {"Price", "Tax", "Location", "Digital Object Identifier", "Barcode", "Total"}

tell application id "DNtp"
	repeat with theRecord in (selection as list)
		repeat with thisAttribute in attributesToScrub
			set mdQuery to (get custom meta data for thisAttribute from theRecord)
			if mdQuery ≠ missing value then
				add custom meta data "" for thisAttribute to theRecord
			end if
		end repeat
	end repeat
end tell

Removing it completely would be something @cgrunenberg would have to assess.
