I have been known to us Windex or even Dow Scrubbing Bubbles Bathroom Cleaner in severe cases with no decals. Joe was right, put any object between the drive and the hand wheel to keep pressure of the rubber drive wheel. I was really pleased to see that Sew-Classic.com had them now. I paid twice as much for the first one I purchased. That is the reason those drive types get junked, as people don't know there are parts still available I have a White 41 parting out if anyone needs parts. I just don't want another White machine at this time. That Rustoleum paint really made the model 44 look good. Don't repaint without using aluminum primer, because, just like airplanes, the paint won't stick around for the long haul. That's what caused the paint to come off to begin with.
