Since I got the Ultra Sonic cleaner. I've been grabing tons of reels off the shelf for cleaning. Here's a Pflueger Templar that I attacked with it.
1 question, the black back sideplate and black ring...how do I get these cleaner? What to use and what not. I used warm water .. wasn't sure if vineger would damage it?
Once the hard rubber dries out like on your reel, you can use a product that JE uses called "Fluid Film". The vinegar solution shouldn't harm it either. Also, the star drag goes on last over everything.
200 - 250 - 300 - 350 - 400 - 450 - 500 YDs... + you can find them with or without freespool... or nickle silver or plated brass. It would make a great display to find them all.
WOW I rarely see them on eBay and if I do each one goes over $100+. Very nice setup, I'm gonna keep my EYE OUT! FOR MORE. I want just the templars now!
Thanks for sharing, I noticed you have another shelf, stand back and lets see the whole collection.!
