Been in detroit area all my life and starlite drums was the norm for cheap .
Friend of mine jus pulled a starlite kit out of garbage lately .
Interesting to kno if hardware used was common on different brands back then .
I had two sets of starlites with different wraps so I stripped wraps and...
I use a small shot of wd 40 with a trickle of rubbing alcohol or jus vegetable glycerin. Veg glycerine werks best.
The wd/40+ alcohol leaves it slimy but werks great after airing for seconds or so .
Mix well !
