Accessories -How to refurbish?
« on: September 09, 2019, 20:31:58 PM »
I bought a huge box of accessories and feet several years ago. Had great fun sorting them out to see what I had got. Some of them are decidedly grubby and I wondered if any one knows how to clean them, and do any of the rufflers etc need oiling?

It depends what’s up with them...

Baby wipes are a good place to start,
Autosol for tarnish/light rust
Sewing machine oil for moving parts,
Then a final wipe over with a baby wipe to get rid of any autosol or oil in the wrong places.
