On a Wayne 70 what color are the spinners in the sight glasses? Are they just bare metal? Thanks

Mine are a little tarnished so I might spray them a silver color. Thanks

I just cleaned a set of sight glass spinners with a Dremel tool using a fairly soft brass brush wheel attachment. The brush wheel cleaned the spinner quickly and didn't leave any scratches. Don't put too much pressure on the tool as you use it...let the wheel do the cleaning. You should then have a nice clean spinner. The final step on mine was to spray the wheels very lightly with clear coat to prevent the tarnish/corrosion from coming back.

Some of the blades cleaned up real good and others just want. I even tried a metal polish that is probably about like 1500 grit and I don't have scratches that just want clean up. I will try the dremel tool and see what it does. Thanks
