Go with my GE vac? I wonder because the there are scoops instead of rectangular slots.

They smelled and had white mold on them. Also, I think there is wax buildup on them still. What removes that?

Yes. These were used for last GE tank,first Swivel Top and Roll Easy in different colors. Slots started with models after yours.

Thank you,

Jimmy. The dusting brush has a bite out of a corner, but the rest are in good shape. There is still some mold on the inside, so I will take care of that. When done, I will wax them.
Take care.

Glad you were able to find the tools you were looking for! Congratulations!
I was going to ask if you tried alcohol to get the mold and residue off of them. But, I wonder if vinegar would be better. (?) Or Simple Green?
With any of them, I'd probably test it on an inconspicuous area, just to be sure it doesn't harm the plastic or color.
Good luck!

I must say....

I do try to apply logic where I can. All I had to do is look at the hose handle to see it was not a rectangular button, but a round one. My previous GE experience was with later models which use the slots.

For that reason, apologize for my post.
