Latest pickup and cleaning project. Was able to snag this one off ebay the other day and gave it a few rounds of retro clean. The first round was only 5 minuets in the solution. Second round was 10 minuets and the final round was 15 minuets. I played it safe and only used 3-4 tablespoons of retro to 1 gallon of warm water. I kept a close eye on the lettering and tiger the entire time to make sure it didn't start to crack or flake off. As you can see by the picture of the water after the first soak the pennant was really dirty. Overall I'm happy with the results and will quit while I'm ahead. On a side note this is one of my favorite designs the Tigers did using this style tiger. I have several other pennants that use this same tiger.
