Removing white mold-release agent from old AF plastic
(click on photo to enlarge)

Old mold-release agent "grows" out from early production plastics

Not only unsightly...

... but also stiffens up link couplers and prevents them from pivoting

Apply a little CRC Power Lube to both sides of the LC

Work the coupler with your hands to free it up

Use a nylon brush on a Dremel, or alcohol, or a hairdryer and wipe

There are 2 layers - the white "dust" and a scale beneath that. Here the white is gone, but the scale remains.

Here the scale is gone

White removed, but scale remains

White and scale removed. Down to original plastic. Injection point and a few prior scratches are all that's left

Get it done with Precision
