o.uk...
I've searched the 'net, and can't believe I can't find the answer to this
one. I'm sure this group can come up trumps.

I have a Dualit toaster, that is no longer toasting evenly. The elements
are covered with transparent panels, as clear as glass, but look like they
could be mica (the edges are slightly flaky). The mica panels are covered
in white, crusty spots (probably cheese and butter splashes).

So - what can I use to clean these deposits? The panels are very clear,
and I don't want to use anything that will abrade the surfaces. A dry
toothbrush alone does not get the deposits off, and I am a bit wary of
using water or soap.

Any suggestions?

I'd like to know that too!

Also, what gauge of wire to use to replace the elements.
