Aluminum or plastic primer catch tray?
Wipe the entire down with xylene or mineral spirits.
The old green paint is probably more in the mint spectrum. As such, doesn't much need prep for a new coat of paint.
Test first to determine whether it's lacquer or enamel.
I just picked up an old RCBS Junior press today for a good price, and would like some suggestions for cleaning and restoration, especially the cleaning part. I'd like to go over it well and get all the dirt and grease off it and prep it for repainting.

YaP it !I like Kroil a lot for degunking mechanisms, because it penetrates really well and rapidly dissolves the dry, gooey mess you find in old machines. ATF would work well, too, but I don't like the smell. Then you can clean it all off with gun cleaner, or brake clean ( mind the paint, some brake clean will eat it) and re-lube.
So, where do I get my MYPGA hat, anyway?
So was it a DIS-assembly machine after that?An afterthought on that project, I installed the ram backwards.... twice... long pause between completion.
