vacboy95,
Don't feel bad about your spelling, I'm much older I'm sure and still have problems, just go for it you get the idea across, that's what is important! I don't know why they put the keys on my laptop in the wrong place or if my fingers are on the wrong hand. Anyhow, so glad your Dad did such a nice thing for you. Hope you said thanks and gave him a hug.
Enjoy your "New Regina" and hang in their with spelling!
Best Wishes,
thekiz

Hi Daniel It sounds like you have a very large collection. How do you keep up with it all and still do well in school. Well i powered up the old Kirby and all went pretty well it needs a good cleaning the cord is just ok the bag is fair to poor but all in all i think it will be ok. I amgoing to grese the bearings just use a bit of white grease that always works very well. Daniel with 150 machines i hope you start then all just to keep things moving. Well Daniel it is 12.00am time to get to bed.. Lets talk again Soon Try to do well in school in this day and age school is very important. Good night God Bless Doug

Doug:

If you want to know the BEST grease, it is Molybdenum Disulfide grease. That stuff is the BEST of any grease you will find. That stuff will last a very long time, and never hardens. It also bonds to the metal, providing an even longer lasting grease. You can type it into Google and see what comes up. I can't wait to try it for mine!

Hi Kyle The grease that you are talking about would i be able to get it at Ace hardware? Also Kyle what do you use to shine up your Kirbys I have been useing a product called Flitz sometimes i use the buffing wheel with rudge in any it as you no is not easy. Sounds like you have a nice collection.Thank you for your help God Bless Doug.

Sorry Kyle i didnt think the message went through Doug

Hey Doug!

I don't know if you could find it at ACE or not. My dad got some at Bike Nashbar. It is very specialized, he says. It needs to be the injection kind, not spray. You are welcome to email me! I use Mother's Mag and Aluminum polish for hand polishing. I still have to find a 5/8" arbor for my buffing wheel/motor. Then I can switch over to rouge polish. I am going to try a lot of different polishes and see what actually works best. My middle name is "experiment!" LOL!
