Thanks for you thoughts and advice as to what has worked for you in cleaning a vintage frame without damage to vintage decals.
Looks like I'm late to this thread. But, I use a very soft sponge with cool water & dishwashing soap for the initial cleaning of my bare frames. After frame dries, I put on latex gloves and apply car wax. Then, rub it off & polish. It's all good.
