GarytheDino Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 I know we have been over this before. I was wondering if we could have a FAQ for cleaning? I did a search but couldn't get anything. I cleaned mine tonight and noticed that I can only get the handles so clean with a brush. It seems like less knerling but it has to be dirt. I also had some gummed up stuff in the spring that I tried to floss out. I can only get them so clean though. I recall some dipping grippers in water or some solution to clean them. I suppose that would not damage the gripper if you put acetone(finger nail polish) or alcohol on them to immediatly dry them and then apply WD-40. But what did you wash them in? It seems that water won't do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearcat 74 Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 I put some water in a cup and then dump 409 or comet into it and dip and scrub with a tooth brush. Then just wipe it off with a towel. Also, make sure you don't put the tooth brush somewhere that it could be confused with one that maybe used to brush teeth.............

After I simply rinse them off and paper towel dry them. If there is really imbedded skin or grime I have a little aluminum brush I got at the dollar store and I will scrub them while their pasty.

OldGuy Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 Use a nail or small scrub brush. Soak the grippers in hot soapy water. Cameo Comet or Barkeepers friend works good, Rinse and let the gripper dry standing spring down. Apply a little 3 in 1 oil to spring avoiding getting oil on handle.

Martin Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 Detergent and water followed by never dull wadding/polish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richcottrell Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 old thread here, but I was about to buy some "Never Dull" but I just realized there are two types. Not sure which one to go after. The one that says its "the original Nevr-dull" comes in a Bluish can, and the other says it is Eagle One Original "Nevr-Dull" and that one comes in a silver can. are they the same thing?
