I think I have at least 11 machines that could use a serious facelift. They have good bones but bad complexions. They won't any get done today - anybody else get rained out? I'm not allowed to do any thing like this in the house or garage or shop - OUT DOORS - orders from DH.

Is raw linseed oil better or is boiled linseed oil best? DH says boiled is best - the raw doesn't dry - just making sure...

Great tutorial, will definitely have to try this!

(Starting in an inconspicuous area, of course; most of my machines aren't Singers, and not all finishes/decals are created equal!)

Pat,

Bring over a machine and I'll furnish the rags and liquid supplies.
Instead of a TOGA it will be a QBSP. (You figure it out. )

Great guess!
But no! However, I may use this one.
Try again. Think!
