Improving paint, metal, and rubber
The typical deep-black color of an early typewriter consists of lacquer, which is quite difficult to restore. Enamel paint was introduced in the 1920s. Typewriters also have many metal parts which are susceptible to rust and discoloration. The shiny metal parts of older typewriters are nickel-plated; newer machines are chrome-plated.
Rust removal should be attempted by the gentlest method first. In order from gentlest to roughest,Mother's Mag
