I found this old Singer yesterday and have no idea which one it is but it was only $5 so I thought I could not go wrong.
I took some before pictures then started cleaning it with only dish soap and warm water. However I don't know if I am cleaning off dirt or the decals!! Can someone please advise me before cleaning [ATTACH=CONFIG]210338[/ATTACH] started cleaning [ATTACH=CONFIG]210339[/ATTACH] The letters were not readable before [ATTACH=CONFIG]210341[/ATTACH] maybe I should start here next [ATTACH=CONFIG]210345[/ATTACH] |
Wonderful! Great find. I think when the red is shaped like that it is a red eye machine.

It'll be a true beauty when it is cleaned up!

That is a red eye and Singer 66. Wow $5? What a great find.
|
Wow! It's beautiful!! :D

Thanks for the link to Billy. I will really have to think about this for awhile. Not sure I am ready to tackle complete break down. How would I ever get it back together.
I am glad to know that I probably did not hurt the decals as I am sure the kerosene could be much more damaging than the dish soap. |
It is safe to use baby oil or sewing machine oil on a cotton ball to clean the machine. Wipe on, leave for awhile so it can loosen the dirt, then wipe off.

I have a red eye too I'm thinking I need to clean up nut scared!!
|
Wow! What a great find! Good luck cleaning her up.
