Cleaning a old tonearm


Hi, A friend gave me an old Grace 727 tonearm and it is very dusty and dirty from sitting out in the open. My question is how and what should I use to clean it. I do not want to mess with dissasembleing the bearings. The dust seems to stuck to it and will need some type of cleaner. Or is this a lost cuase? Thanks in advance.

Pledge Multi Surfaces is a new product designed to clean metal, wood, glass and electronics. It claims to be streak-free, anti-static, and leave no residue. I used it to clean a TT that I am restoring, including the aluminum tonearm, and it worked so well I went on and used it to clean all my equipment. It is clear, has little order, dries quickly, and the dirt is quite visible on the mirofiber cloth. I got it at Wal-Mart for $3.97 for a 9.7 oz aerosol can. Feels like a commercial, but this is very different and more effective than other cleaners I have used.
