cleaning a Scotch-Brite belt - Ken S - 06-29-2017

I watched a video about cleaning a Scotch-Brite belt in a bucket with water and Dawn dishhwashing detergent. My fine belt was starting to look cruddy, so I tried it. I used hot water with Dawn and let the belt soak overnight. The tub had some gunk it it in the morning. The belt looked cleaner, not perfect, but much better. I rinsed and dried it.

In hindsight, I should have had a soare belt on hand before doing this. The cleaning worked well, although I do plan to order a spare belt. I have found the Scotch-Brite fine belt very useful. I remove it from the Viel. I don't know if the belt stretches. It won't stretch when removed.

Comments welcome.
