Default Re: Bakelite advice requested

Well, the GG5 arrived this lunchtime, and what can I say, as you predicted, it has done its magic. I am well pleased.

Just one question, I used a clean cloth and despite having previously scrubbed the case twice in warm water and detergent the cloth took on quite a chestnut brown colour. Is this colouring the remainder of some stubborn nicotine staining or is it some constituent of the bakelite itself?

I have started a new thread regarding cleaning of the dial if you are able to help.

Thanks for all your advice.
