List,
I have a grand action, with knuckles that are all graphited up.
I seem to recollect that using toluene with a brass wire brush, is the
way to remove this stuff. Is this correct?
I then intended to use dry lube powder from APSCO, or soapstone, to
lubricate the knuckles.
Is this a correct procedure?  Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thank you.
