Ever tried goo gone on these keys?

Very interesting point about the effect typing has on the mental processes involved in writing. It makes you think before you act. I went to school in France. We had to write in class essays. We were not allowed to erase or mark anything out. If you made a mistake you had to write your way out of it. Not a bad way to learn.

Royal Aristocrat. $19.95 at a local antique shop.

I am a newbie typewriter enthusiast. I purchased a Royal Aristocrat in very good condition for $19.95 locally. There is a typewriter repair near me, and I will take it next week for general servicing.

I would, however, like to get it as clean as possible prior to taking it in. 

What is the process you use to clean your typewriter and keys? What products do you use or recommend? Are stiff toothbrushes useful for cleaning. Do you ever use wax on your keys to shine them, and if so what brands?

Any information/hacks you could give me would be greatly appreciated!

Happy typing.
