To keep the spray from drying, wrap the plastic in some cling wrap after spraying it..

Sorry for the late response. Retr0bright is the name of a process using H2o2 (Hydrogen Peroxide) and a heat source or UV light. You can retr0bright things without a UV light using Sunlight and if you wanna be less wasteful, you can use some Salon Care Volume 30 and some cling wrap. Since you...

Yeah, it’s definitely likely that they used cheap switches that would overheat due to the current.

An update… Got the turbine tool! I retr0brighted the top since it was yellowed. After some lube for the tool. It works great!

This also happened with the Scorpion Hand Vac. https://www.cpsc.gov/Recalls/2015/Dirt-Devil-Recalls-Hand-Vac-Turbo-Tool-Accessory

There was a thread on this from 2008, but there’s a possibility that some collectors still could have some defective Turbo Tools. Luckily, I don’t have one and my turbo tools have never exploded. Dirt Devil likely doesn’t offer repair kits anymore and the solution now is to get a replacement...

You’re welcome, btw!

What type of motor were these if these were made by Ametek Lamb? Cause these motors don’t look like Ametek Lamb Motors.

I know these were used in the Maytag Windtunnels and Mine still has its Original Motor in it. But I’d like to know who made these.

Does it have a Serial Number? I can read it..

So... Maytag made the Windtunnels from 1996-2007 with the Original WIndtunnel Being released around 1996. The First Self Propelled version was during 1998. In 2000, they released the Windtunnel Twin Chamber and a year later Hoover Updated the Self Propelled and Twin Chamber Windtunnels to have...

I’m planning to use some Laundry Detergent for my Mom’s room..

I’m guessing yours is a S.P Windtunnel Premium. Mine’s a S.P Windtunnel Ultra.
