    Default cleaning & restoring Kenmore machine

    I have a 39 year old Kenmore 159.1941 that I got when my daughter was born.
    The side panel where the handwheel is has yellowed with time, but the rest of the
    machine is fine.
    Can anyone tell me how to clean it to make it match the color of the rest of the machine?
    Can that side panel be removed to do this or do I have to do it while it is still on the machine?
    It is not hurting using the machine, but it looks awful.
    Thanks for any help you can give me

    The answer is the same as the last time you asked the question: http://www.quiltingboard.com/vintage...e-t263551.html

    Yes, you should be able to remove that panel.
