Piddled around with this & that under the 914 this morning, until the heat index rose above 100. Then I retired to the coolness of a 60 degree basement & decided to open up my sealed tool kit. Each piece placed into baggies with Dryrite ( from my days as a chemist for Kodak - many years ago). Everything looked good, except for 2 pieces, which look like crap! Sorry, camera batteries are charging - no pics until tomorrow.
Mine is the kit from a '72. The pliers, and the wrench (13/8mm) came out pitted & oxidized. Not rust, but black oxidation. Found a pinhole in each baggie. These have been in storage for 14 years. So....what's my cure. I've seen Bliznick's pics of his spares, some of which appear to be dichromate plated. Don't recall mine ever looking like that, but I do like it. Yeah, I know this is no good without pics. Tomorrow. I'm bummed! Pat |
