I recently took apart my old Curado 300DSV and noticed the main gear had... staining? On it from I assume the drag washers.
Does this affect the reel in any way? If so how would I go about cleaning it off? I already soaked in Simple Green, a 50/50 mix of WD40 and mineral spirits, and polished with a brass polish.
That will be fine. Light grease and your good to go.
Cheers
