I'm finally down in the cave restoring my S.A.M.I.
I've cleaned the projector board and film. Although had to remove the film the tape at the joint was falling apart. Removed the adhesive and re-applied a clear tape. I used Novus 1 to clean the film and it looks a million times better. Also cleaned the projection glass parts and mirror. The fan was full of dirt and dust so I tore that down. The projector bulb looks to be in good condition. Would like to upgrade this to a LED but I want to have it up and running before I mod.
Cleaned all the bulb sockets that reside behind the back glass lower and rebulbed.
Replaced all the locks that I had to drill out...then I fount the key on the inside of the cabinet.
Pulled and cleaned the "explosion light bar". Novus 2 the top of the plexi and it looks great. Checked all the bulbs and sockets.
Took out the background and projection screen. Need to clean both and I was thinking diluted dawn dish soap and warm water. A new black light floresent tube is in order. The previous owner replaced it with a standard white tube.
Up tomorrow is he "rocket track". It's pulled and on the workbench. I need to take my time as the rocket is delaminating heat as the years gone by. Also up will be the cleaning of the score reels.
I'll post some pics soon...
