This is a great solution. What I found is three or four small applications over a period of a couple days works better for the long term. I know the purists shun this approach but so far none of the purists have VOLUNTEERED to do my camera so they can suck it. What you show is a great solution for years and years.
Do you ever lube the blades after cleaning? I've taken mine apart as you've shown above but I'm finding the aperture blades are sticking. With a little nudge they'll go where they're supposed to but it seems like it needs some lube. Is there a lube in particular you would recommend to use (sparingly)?
I’d really like to fiddle with my Ae-1 but I watched a couple of your videos. Not worth the risk. Interested in helping me out? It has power but won’t release the shutter. Thanks
Nice video… it’s the first I’ve seen on the Canonet . Been looking at the as my first rangefinder. Thanks for the content!

A workplace that messy would be a nightmare.

Hi, what is that tool at 5:16 called?
He literally tells you what they are called at 2:55
Rosary pliers.
Why are you so rough with the winding lever? I see many people operate them like that. An old camera needs treating with a little respect.
