Industrial typewriter cleaning
Following the Eaton Fire catastrophe, our house is finally being cleaned. While the duct cleaners were here, I thought I’d break out a dirty Olympia SG3 and use the 175psi air compressor and industrial 300 pound air filtration to “dust” my machine. I now want one of these for the typewriter workshop!
People have previously asked about getting rid of the musty smell that some portable typewriters and their cases can have. Some have asked about ozone treatment, but since there’s a hydroxyl generator in the house for the next week, I thought I’d run a test on my mustiest and smelliest typewriter. Follow up details to come next week.

I’m interested in a simple answer to the musty case smell.
This is what I call Advanced making lemonade.
Circling back for an update on this. 8 days of having an approximately 2 foot square hydroxyl generator next to an open, musty smelling typewriter and case made only the most negligible/modest dent in the overall smell. It definitely didn’t remove the smell completely. I couldn’t recommend doing this as a solution and wouldn’t try it again.
