    The metal bits soaked in Evapo-rust over night. They are awaiting a good polishing up. They were very rusted or tarnished pretty good. I have one that was a lot worse. It cleaned up pretty good that way, too.
    We did nothing for the damaged decals but coat - you will need to look at Glenn's tutorial. http://www.quiltingboard.com/search....archid=7720909
    That should be Glenn's profile. He has quite a bit of info on cleaning up the finish on the sewing machine and the cabinet. Look through his posts and glean lots of information.
