Tally Posted June 3, 2004 Report Share Posted June 3, 2004 I have a few old reels. What is the best thing to use to try clean them without hurting the finish. I would like to clean these up and display them in a case. Two of the reels even have the old time multi-color line on them. Any help restoring these reels would be greatly appreciated.

Skeeter Posted July 20, 2004 Report Share Posted July 20, 2004 You might try a light rubbing with WD40. It is a solvent. Skeeter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
