How to Clean an Old La Champion Frame?
Hi,

@LaChamp1976 - I know you are new and welcome. Search is your friend. This topic has been addressed many times. Read some of the threads addressing building up a bike. There are lots of them.

Other than recommending the Search function, which has more than 2 decades of information answering (multiple times) almost every post you've made thus far, you may want to read this thread from someone in a similar situation, but with a high-end Viner:
Viner Special Professional (Read reply # 8 and 22 for info you're asking here)
Also this thread, make sure to read reply # 4:
My Trip (restoration) with a Viner
And a piece of advice: You may have a Le Champion, not "La" Champion.
