[GreenKeys] Best Way to Clean Model 15 Slugs?

[Chris DeMuro]

Long time, no see!

I was wondering if you all have any advice on the best way to clean the
typing slugs on a Model 15, both the best way to get at them physically
(leave them in place, remove carriage, remove printer unit, etc) and the
best cleaning solution to use. For typewriters, it seems to go back and
forth between "alcohol, but make sure to use pure alcohol and dry it
completely so it doesn't rust" and "mineral spirits but dear God do it
outside and don't get it on the paint." I was wondering if the guidance was
any different for teletypes, and if anyone here has a novel approach.

Thanks,
