Ford of Canada Inspection Lamp
Hi Mike,
Good to see you on here. I've left a NOS Carrier Inspection Lamp at the barn this morning with Paul, think it will be perfect for you...if you don't have one already! Cheers

Maybe Armour-All would be betterto soak them in? I have used that on the rubber cones on the Mk7 Microphones of my WS 19 headsets to good results.

Hi Mike
Welcome. I would use a rubber/nylon lubricant on any old rubber. Car supermarkets sell it for weather strips etc - I got mine from Halfords . It wont make it a lot better - nothing will, but it will stop it drying out further and cracking more Rick

Soaked some rubber items at bluebird in aviation hyd oil and it resurected them a treat.... Must have been luck.
You could use the originals as patterns and cast some more ?

Thank you all for the suggestions on rubber lubrication.
John, Thanks for leaving the inspection lamp, I do have one but not even sure if it is wartime let alone Ford so will have a look at yours next weekend. Ron, Yes it is my brother Paul who has a Tilly project so guess he will be visiting you. Small world isn't it!! Regards Mike
