saving a 100+ year old decal

[eltoquad]

Probably discussed before but don’t remember the solution. How can I save the remains (90%) of a decal this old and still use the motor? Just handling the motor causes paint to flack off. Thanks, Tom

The factory recommended a liberal coat of infa red and ultra violet absorbing wax applied as needed. It sounds like it may be too late for you. Know that everything changes over time, so what you see is not what it was when the factory applied it. The obvious solution of keeping the motor in a cool, dry, dark place means you never use it . . . 😆

A "Boathouse Repair" is one that done without having tools or the skills to do it properly.
