What you say is true.

However I dont have any Pachinko specific hand tools.

On top of that Eddie is a low life selfish, wants everything cool Pachi related scum. With no morals or decency.

Ebay is the easy path, but easy it leads to the dark side. What you seek is Arby. Much powerful he is with locating tools of the sphere...
Most awesome the set he got me, so powerful they have made my daughter in the way of kugishi.

This is a Pachinko Kit that was being sold in the late 1960's early 1970's by a company called Target Abroad who was also inporting all of the now so called vintage pachinko's being sold through the discount stores at that time. I have the same Kit now that I purchased back then. ($15.00) The only things I use is the nail bender and the two ended ball tool that is a gauge for the openings to the payout holes. It works great and I am sorry to say that the person who won it on Ebay will be using only the same two items for the aerosol can will not work for it's age (I think it had Windex in it anyway) and the brush is really useless. I think that is what stained some of my vintage pachinko's, now that I think of it. I don't think it's a good idea to spray anything onto the surface of a cell, just because the liquid WILL penetrate aroung the nails. That is why I don't think that the pica cell cleaner is a good idea. Maybe that is why they don't make them anymore?
I think someone had said.
What I found, to do a good job is Novus polish/cleaner sprayed on a microfiber cloth and then wrapped around my ball gauge and then rubbed between the nails. This action cleans, but then you have to go over it again with a DRY microfiber cloth to POLISH the surface and all of the eye candy that is on the cell. IT WORKS GREAT! And lasts a good while of playing. Keep your balls clean by not handling them much and you will enjoy a clean machine for a good while.
My 2 cents worth,

For $113 you gotta believe that that kit is going into a collection, not for actual use ... although... I am wrong a lot LOL

I agree and handling the balls on the single shot as much as you have to is the only draw back with that type of machine.

You must really make sure your hands are clean and you should wipe down the machine more often.

Im the sucker that won the cleaning kit but I had figured that the cleaner in the can was too old to work anyway. I would be amazed if the areosol actually still worked.

I was bidding on the tools and ummm got caught up in the bidding wars.

I guess it got out of hand. Good thing I have overtime on Tuesday!!!

[rubberratt]

Gratz Eddie !!

I don't think you are a sucker at all !!! I would like to have had that kit myself, but the bidding got too rich for my blood (heh heh). You won a great item.

ENJOY IT !!!

PS - Told ya I was wrong LMAO

i have to admit i use a cell cleaner on all teh machines i retail and have never had any complaints about any marking on teh cell through seapage of teh cleaner if used properly they are great as teh cleaner is foam not liquid the brush head removes and holds dirt and the fan in the back blows through the brushand drys teh cleaner to a polish where the second brush buffs it all up to shine

[rubberratt]

I use a combo of Novus #2 (first Pass) and then finish with the Pica Cell Cleaner and spray, ya gotta wash the brushes off REALLY well tho' after you do that. They pick up the polish from in-between the nails, and the heads get dirtier then they normally would.
