    Cool boombox. I love the double poptart receptacles. Perfect for a snack while grooving down the road with this thing up on your shoulder.

    That was one of the best before and after shots I've seen.

    Nice video. Wagner sells new pinch rollers, and they're not too expensive. You need to know the axle diameter, and the circumference of the outer tyre, and it's width. They sell various sizes. I find that if you sand an old pinch roller it's not long before it's cactus again. So, when in doubt i replace where i can.

    I've tried RRR and like you found it didn't do enough. In my limited experience I needed to use sandpaper. I think perhaps the RRR is for heavy use rollers in printers that aren't that way from age, just use?

      I think you're right. Guess I'll try out some other suggestions, might try sandpaper first but apparently brake fluid could also work...
      On an unrelated note, I literally just finished listening to the latest episode of TWiR when your comment popped up. Nice work as always 👍

    Did you try turning the tape over?

    Well I'm guessing that's a no for the rubber roller restorer then 😆

    I believe brake fluid can restore rubber

      Interesting, I wonder if there's a difference between using dot 3,4,5 etc. I think I have some dot 4 in the garage, could be a fun experiment

      @@TheRetroChannel yeah I was thinking the same, run some tests, I even hear dextron 2/3 or hydrolic oil even works, let me know if you do any tests and what you find.
