I just love the Electrolux (there you go Bob) XXX rug tools. The aluminum can be restored by polishing with a machine, but many times I find the bumper material has turned hard and many times is stretched out. If there is a bumper that is not stretched, broken or cracked, has anyone found a way to restore those bumpers (silicone, mineral oil, etc) to a better condition? Fred |
