6Hi David,
    In answer to your first question, I don't think that the vertigris =
will=20
leech to the new parts however, I generally clean all rails back to =
their=20
natural state when installing new action parts.=20
    You have a much bigger problem with the splitting rails. They need=20
replacing or get a new stack for that model! I recommend rail =
replacement. If=20
you are not comfortable with retrofitting them yourself you can have the =
new=20
rails soldered in by a subcontractor. There are several on the list and=20
advertise in the PTG Journal.
Good Luck,
Dale Whitehead
