Hi Paul, and welcome to the list. My Series V also came from California
but the arrangement was just the opposite of yours. The owner allowed me
to pay it off in installments after I received it , with no written
contract.
Regarding your crusty bakelite items, I used fine steel wool to get
rid of the gray stuff and was happy with the results. If you want to go
a step further, I understand there is a polish made specifically for
bakelite. There was a posting on this list about the polish 2 months
ago. You should be able to find it in the archives.
If someone disagrees about using steel wool please speak up. I
don't want to be the cause of Paul irreparably damaging his bakelite
items.
