Another Kodak Retina IIIC arrives for repair. This one is someone’s failed repair project, and as I discover, it has more ‘history’ than that.
Consumables used:
I use naphtha (cigarette lighter fluid) for cleaning metal parts. CRC Heavy Duty Lectra Clean for dried grease that the naphtha won’t dissolve. A generic wax and grease remover to soak mechanical parts prior to cleaning in an ultrasonic cleaner. Glass cleaned with normal domestic glass cleaner.
Parts are lubricated with a synthetic grease, Inox MX6, Rocol Dry Molybdenum paste, MicroLubrol Helimax XP helicoid grease, or graphite grease as needed.
Leatherettes are glued back with Ados F2 adhesive.
