Will woolite and ammonia remove the green discoloration in the sabre mask bib??
Are there any alternative detergents? I live in asia and we dont have woolite, can you recommend anything other than woolite?
DEANER 160 it will “mostly” remove the green and improve conductivity. Not sure about other detergents but I think you can use a powder because some people wash their mask in the dishwasher.
@@1980pdv thank you!
@@1980pdv wich woolite is he using?
Can I use vinegar
Can you also wash the mask in a dishwasher?
cristina d Yes you can. I don’t have one, so not sure which soap to use. I just clean the mask and lame at the same time.
Phillip Daniel Vincent thank you. I washed in dishmashine and was good
The mask is better to brush it.
Are there any other ways to clean a Sabre?
Please respond ASAP
Bare steel blade = sand paper
Colored (blue) blade = steel wool (pot scrubber)
Perfect thanks
@@phillipdanielvincent9209 is it alright to sand a sabre blade? I was worried about it affecting the conductivity since it doesn't have an internal wire like a foil or epee, the edge of the steel itself is live
Fiona Tsang you have to remove the rust from the blade or it will be less conductive, break easier, and get other fencers’ uniforms dirty. Don’t want to make the blade thin, just want to remove rust. Sand by hand using a sponge not with a machine. Blade doesn’t have to be shiny. Better for it to be gray than black or brown. (Can’t sand a colored blade.)
