Hey y'all! hope everyone is well! It's 2 degrees hotter than hell here in east Texas! I was using my Electrolux model G last night cleaning the ceiling fans and it fell over and one of the back wheels broke :( I had one that was a extra but its white, so i was wanting to know if anyone had a turquoise rear wheel they would part with? Thanks in advance! Cody
 
anyone!?!?! PLEASE!!! LOL My poor favorite little vacuum looks so funny with one
white wheel!
 
Well....

I've re-epoxied many a LUX G wheel and never had one break again. I was playing with my dog once and fell directly on my G, breaking all the wheels. That was like seven yrs ago and a lot of floor miles since.;-) I'm guessing that you broke it at the core and can probably fix it without it showing. Unfortunately from what I gather, shortly after the turquoise Model G went to tan, the wheels became generic when replacing. I don't think LUX had a tremendous amount of spare turquoise wheel stock. More often than not, I see turquoise G's with generic wheels.

If you don't like the idea of epoxy, then get matching wheels and use turquoise epoxy paint for plastics.
