Pardon me while I barge in with my issue du jour....parafin-sick
flanges...   So, rebush 'em?  Repin 'em?  Soak 'em?  Or toss
'em?


My experience has been if you repin and use protek on the
verdigris  bushings, the verdigris doesn't come back.  That is,
use the Protek while the pin is out of the bushings.  That way the
Protek will completely dissolve the verdigris and wash it out of
the bushings, and you are left with a clean bushing.   Applying
protek leaving the old pin in will work for a while, but it doesn't
seem to get all the stuff out with just one application.  Several
applications are usually necessary.
