You will need to use bug and tar remover for cars. Use a small brush to coat the stuff with and do this often then use a soft plastic putty Knife and gently scrape it off. As it softens coach it off the finish.

Hi Glenn
I just purchased a Singer 306K and I love quality of this machine plus it's engineering and design! The upper body has some crazing and the shellac is mostly crackled and spotty on the neck & plate including what appears to be dried dust and oil coating all the parts on the underside but other than cosmetic appearance this machine is a beast - good for another few generations at least! I have a few questions and concerns about the cleaning and finishing of the shellac but I will post a few pics over the weekend and ask my questions then. Thank you for an awesome thread and your advise on these beautiful machines. |

What is the best recommendation for removing rust on the bed? Shall I post a pic? I'm new at this and need a shove in the right direction (it's a Singer 99)
