Revitalizing Rubberized Cloth
By Leslie Hoffman

I have an E. P. Needham organette that is actually playing.  Because
of my move back East, just to see that it was still in one piece,
I took it apart and realized that the rubberized cloth on the bellows
felt a little hard.  No cracks but just stiff feeling.

I was wondering if there is a way to revitalize the rubber?  I know
that sometimes a person thinks that they are doing something that will
benefit the machine and actually damaging it, so "If it ain't broke,
don't fix it".  So that is why I am asking this very question.

Thank you,

Leslie Hoffman
