PN-1 Looks good! This looks like the optional 3 row brush.These belts can last for years unlike other brands that used smooth belts.Another reason that 'Eletrolux is better-Better buy Electrolux'. | ||

I once to a pine 'cobblers bench' coffee table repaired and the guy who did it suggested I periodically go over it with a furniture polish called Finish Feeder (no longer manufactured, sadly) and #00 or #000 steel wool. He advised me to just go with the grain and not scrub very vigorously. I followed his instructions and it absolutely glowed when I was done.
You did a great job on that power nozzle. I just love the PN1, PN2, and PN4/4A power nozzles. They work as good as they look and are easy to repair or rebuild. I know what you mean about all the little pieces when you take the motor apart. I had a lot of fun (relative term) with that when I rebuilt one for a PN4A a year or two ago. For some strange reason, I like customizing PN4 era power nozzles. I gave one a custom paint job that came out looking better than factory and gave another one a polished aluminum PN4 cover that looks much better than the scratched-up Silverado gray paint job. I think painting the the PN4 and 4A power nozzles to match the Olympia One and Silverado color schemes was a dreadful mistake. Polished aluminum is a much more durable finish. | ||

Magic eracer, I tried using that but found it disintegrated shortly after started to use it. That is why I switched to alcohol and a terry rag or non-stick pan scrubber. | ||
