Re: The Quackery Thread
Or, go down poundland and get a couple of those little dehumidifier things with the silica gel in.

Ordered the belts, isopropyl, 500 big cotton buds, and some rubber renue for it today Ive never used rubber renue for idlers, or any other rubber bits ...

If its iron on it would probably come off by re heati...
