Hi. I'm new at vintage machines. I have a Singer 128, 1924. I remember reading that you recommended Gojo without pumice for cleaning, but I can't remember which video it was. How and where do I use it? Thanks!

Hello! Thanks for sharing. During the weekend, I took apart the thread tension for the first time and cleaned it. I bought the Mothers Mag & Aluminum Polish based on one of your previous video. It helped a lot. Are you still using it or you have a new favorite? Thank you!

I have a Singer 185J. Should I tackle this cleaning on that model? If so, do you recommend a specific polish brand? Thanks for another great video!

You have such great videos and I enjoy them; however your sanding of the tension disk spots is wrong, the tension disks need to be completely flat so to sand out marks you need to put the sandpaper on a flat surface and use water and rub the entire surface of the disk held flat evenly across and in different directions until it looks spot free, there is plenty of metal in the disk to do this, only flat tension disks will be able to provide proper even tension in these tension assemblies.
