JGEE Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 Hi I’m new to the site and after 20 years of swearing I’m out of collecting I’m getting back into it. I recently picked up a Thruster Tri Power with all original parts from previous owner. It has a Cooks Bros. Gen. 1 stem that the nickel has spots. As well as the frame chrome etc. He had good taste and I want to keep the bike as is. No restoring but I want to clean it properly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yardsale2 Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Spray it down with wd40 let it sit over night, then hit it with a new OOOO pad of steel wool. I have done this many times and it’s cleaner the dipping it in what ever to later a need to clean it again. LOL 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
