On the machine's themselves, if you don't have a lot of decals, I've found Turtle Wax brand Bug and Tar remover has worked wonderfully! Machine doesn't need the waxing afterward either. I used it on a 201 & 301a.

Did you clean up the woodwork? What did you use. It looks brand new!

Grinster, look at the top post on this page and thank you for the compliment on my hard work!

Beautiful cabinet, I would display it too. Just no room here. Glad you found this beauty.

Nice work, beautiful cabinet.

Very lovely and makes you want to just run your hands over it. We have a treadle and I would like nothing more than to see it restored and in great working order.

You lucky person, you. What a gorgeous cabinet. Whatever you had to do, it was worth it and then some.

I have the same machine but haven't refinished it yet. I just love it with all the decorative embellishment on it. I can't get mine to sew without thread breaking, so I wonder if I'm threading correctly. Have you tried sewing on yours? You did a great job on the finish!!!

Looks like it was well taken care of.

I have one just like her and I just love it. Enjoy!!
