Cleaning your portable
« on: October 06, 2007, 06:17:16 pm »
Hi guys i recently purchased a used ashbys diamond back which is made from the polyurethene stuff that all the new machines appear to made up, but like most older machines the casing has a few scratches and bumps from over time, is there anyway  i can rejuvenate the machine???

Alltec used to sell some thing called BS compound to clean machines with I always thought they were taking the mickey and it stood for bull poop, but they do sell it.

amour all does a nice job on the diamond back, and autoglym tyre dressing not bad also. there whitish liquids you spray on and leave to soak in.

If there are any bad cuts or scratches on it then get a blow lamp and gently pass it back and forth. The heat will gradually remove them but be carefull.
