I just acquired 2 Czech tools and a Yellow Bole tool from an estate sale. They haven't been used in over 20yrs, per the granddaughter, and they were thrown in a box and forgotten about with cake - that won't come off with a scratch of the nail - and what looks to be like coffee stains, not to mention 20yrs+ of built up dirt/dust (the box had no lid).
I was just going to use some soap, water and good ol'elbow grease hoping it would suffice, when my wife suggested CLR due to the time frame they have been neglected for.
That's when I thought I should pose the question to you fine folks - have you been in a similar situation? If so, how did you clean them? And even if you haven't been in this situation your feedback would also be appreciated! Cheers!
