I haven’t found any posts about this. Perhaps I’m just the odd duck here, but the original paper manuals and documents interest me just as much as the machine. My recent Granny and the Gators acquisition actually had the manual, original envelope and all, stuffed way in the bottom... unfortunately it looks like it was soaked in some sort of cherry-cola.
Before attempting anything, and irreversibly damaging this rather difficult-to-obtain manual, does anyone have any tips for preserving and perhaps even cleaning out the stain?
