Default gooped up BRPE tape punches

I have two mostly complete BRPE tape punches. You know, the old ones
rated to go somewhare arounf 100 CPS.

Problem is they've been sitting for a few decades and all the
mechanical parts are all stuck with Aunt Jemima's tty Oil and Pancake
Syrup it seems. There's no way the little levers are going to flick at
100 cps! Can barely flick them by finger in about a second.



Shell X55 used to be the stuff - dont know if its still available, used
to put entire teletype machines in a spray booth, hose them down with
it....
