[GreenKeys] Lorenz Model 15 progress

[Keith Lueck]

I've had the best luck with mineral spirits.  I've tried citrus-based degreasers, Simple Green, denatured alcohol, and none of those worked as well as mineral spirits.  Of course, if Perc (TCE) was still available, that would be my first choice, but it's not good for you or the environment...  
I'd love to hear from other list members what's worked for them.

Thanks to several great list members, I have several books and  tutorials on the theory. The first unit tackled was the parts machine  keyboard, which I have cleaned and believe I have working,  or at least close enough to just need adjustment.  The typing unit is going to be much more of a challenge. It has a petty good layer of gunk over it. Is there some bath you can put these in that will cut the grease but not do damage? That would save a lot of time.  It's not imperative I get this unit running, it was destined as spare parts for the good machine but its a great way to gain  some practical experience with them.
