I spent about 5 hours taking apart, cleaning, and polishing my Sentria and Diamond. Later on this week, I'll do my G4, Heritage, Omega, 514, and 511. |

I would buy it a new bag, but I don't really feel like shelling out 50 plus dollars for it. Does it look bad? All the machines set aside will be going to Cleveland this summer. |

Great job shining them all up. TASE, If you are worried about a vacuum looking 'fruity' because of a pink bag, you must not be a very secure guy. |

I guess I can't complain about the pink bag because I only paid 15 dollars for the Sentria at Goodwill. |

What models are they? Pictures would be excellent. |

Sonnyndad, the vacuum looks great, though I just love the look of the Sentria in general.
Gr8DaneDad, I have no problem with the pink bag. My Sentria had a pink bag for a good 3 months before I got a new bag at a bargain of $20 on eBay. Though, my gray bag is starting to turn pink again even though it is stored away from most light. Here's my Sentria going from pink to gray: www.vacuumland.org/cgi-bin/TD/TD-... |

For some reason, the Diamond's headlight has quit working. I replaced the light bulb and still nothing. It used to work, but right before I took it apart to polish it, it quit. Any ideas? |

It was temperamental before I took it apart. I was able to perform percussive maintenance on it and got it to work. That didn't help this time. |

I guess we'll never the models of those mystery Kirbys. |
