REO and battery maint day!

[Alawot]

Don't forget a little maintenance once in a while to keep your Reo's in tip top shape!

Today my woodvil got a nice mineral oil treatment. Then some deoxit gold for all the contacts on the woodvil and the Grand. And then some deoxit on all my batteries.

Thanks Rob for such a great product!

Nice little reminder

Good reminder. I just did my Woodvils last week.

Yup, weekly checks on the contacts and whichever coil I'm runnin' seems to do it for me. Deep cleanin on the Grand and some oil for the Woodvil about once per month.

What's the best name brand of mineral oil (Rob recommended) to buy? .

 

[Rule62]

I use Bayes mineral oil on the insides. Howard Feed n Wax on the outside.

 

[Alawot]

I use Howard's mineral oil inside and out. I like the fact that it has no scent.

 

[ed101z]

You guys got links? Definitely helps in matters like this.

 

[Rule62]

I got both at Home Depot. I think Lowe's and Ace Hardware will also carry Howard's, and the mineral oil.

My woodvil is do for a rub down and grease job thanks for the reminder

 

[Sloth Tonight]

I should probably rub my wood soon, too

I should probably rub my wood soon, too

Only in Reoville!

 

[Alawot]

I picked up my Howard's at Home Depot.

 

[Robinowitz]

What synchronicity! Used Howard's Fee and Wax today (True Value), cleaned contacts with isopropyl and finished with Deoxit (same with batteries).

Yep, a clean Reo equals a happy Reo. Or as a friend of mine used to say, "ya take care of your car and your car will take care of you..."

 

[Spydro]

I keep it simple, only wax my wood about once a month and all the other maintenance on the woods, the metals, atty's and batts is just part of the daily routine when I pick one up that needs some. They don't really need much maintenance at all as IMO they are truly no fuss no muss gear. Besides, that routine is way easier than doing all of them at once.

 

[Danrogers]

I'm new so I don't have my routine set up, but thanks for the reminder, I gave my Bkack Wrinkle a bath and used Deoxit Gold on the contacts, rewicked and I'm good to go.

And then make some more nut milk

 

[ed101z]

How about this?? Would it work for the inside.

[jifjifjif]

I believe that is what I used on my first Woodvil. The product, is good, but you may get an orange scent from it.
