Joe, I am afraid to use break clean near the painted surfaces. It takes paint off. Where do you get the Triflo Oil anyway? Would an auto parts store carry it? And Miriam, the Pfaff does have some Bakelite but no plastic. I was thinking I would crank up the oven and put it on top of the stove to get the radiant heat from it. Yea, it has been cold here as of late near Chicago. My hand might just freeze to it if I tried leaving it in my car for a while now.
Any other ideas?
