The black muck It looks like what I have seen inside Kirby cleaners and is possibly a sticky residue formed from vacuuming carpets which were still damp from wet cleaning, particularly if the cleaning product was a leave-in type, rather than extraction. | ||

I can't believe the difference. I also can't believe what people do to a poor vacuum. They must be the most abused appliance in the home. | ||

Terrific turnaround! It's quite evident that you put a lot of hard work and effort into eliminating whatever horrific foreign substance she had in there. I had to study the one picture for a while to figure what it was. Then I realized it was a Sharpy marker with lint and junk caught around at the EZ Access clog door. I guess its funny and stupid at the same time. I don't want to know how someone vacuumed up a Sharpy marker!!!
Congrats on the find, glad it turned out so well. It's a gorgeous green! | ||

Very common source of brown residue on vacuum cleaners: Canine vomitus. | ||

one more pic...
the bottom after, i nelgected to photograph the brush roll area after cleaning but before reassembly but i did snap this pic. Than for your thoughts, k9 or carpet cleaner it was nasty, no smell though & didn't make it all the way up the hose so the rest of the internals were fine.
Sadly i have packed my collection back up until next time i visit my mother, so this Panny will have to wait for a full sesion of use.

You did an excellent job restoring that thing.... it looks like brand new! Those machines seem really durable and I am glad it has found a home with someone who will take care of it! | ||

Wow - Looks great! - Good job :)
I can't believe the difference - I honestly don't think I could take on such a task. I guess you had to take the ENTIRE thing apart and soak it in some strong stuff! EUWWWW. I guess I wouldn't have attempted it myself because I wouldn't be comfortable taking something apart to the extent you would have to to actually clean every single piece of it.......... | ||
