Sassoon - further advice please - 2007/03/08 08:33 Hi

Thanks Colin and Frederick for advice back last November when I wrote about my not-all-there Sassoon.

I'm now coming back to trying to get the old thing up and running

I should now be able to hunt down a basket and seal - thanks

Before I could fit the seal though - there is quite a bit of a horrible, creamy-coloured gunk there, really hard - presumably the decayed old seal - but more like hard plastic than old rubber. Have you any advice as to a suitable solvent to clean this away. I've not tried undoing the screws of the filter as that seems to work OK and I'm reluctant to mess with it unless I have to, so would prefer to try to clean the stuff off in situ - (as we archaeologists say). There is enough of it in places to stop the seal sitting properly in its groove, so I think it will have to go.

Jug. I see that you, Frederick have new ones for sale - how much to buy and ship to UK please? Black handle.

Thanks

Jenny

Meanwhile I'll just polish the body up as per care and repair advice on the NZ Atomic link site... and then send its piccy for you to admire!
