Quoted from goingincirclez:Issue #3: discoloration of the art contrasting between the plastic inserts and the wood (look at the script "Shoot" words in the outfield). There is also a ring around a couple of the inserts. I can't imagine this could be from anything other than moisture / mold getting into the space between the insert and wood... or deeper into the wood itself (oh no).
I'd guess that the wood has discolored the ink over the years.
I don't see how any mold spores could get under the Mylar.
Quoted from goingincirclez:. But I'm presuming I can't leave the coils and stuff attached.
Yes, you can leave the coils.
Just no speakers, relays or anything that won't dry out.
Quoted from goingincirclez:What kind of detergent is safe?
Cascade is fine, or any of those pods the kids like to eat.
Quoted from goingincirclez:This will sound stupid, but should I remove the paper wrappers first, or do those normally survive OK?
The coils that have labels made of "masking tape" I leave.
The ones that seem to be regular paper, I remove.

You can get it at the hardware store, or even a beauty supply store.
