I seized up the dry clutch by leaving the bike in the rain with an open clutch cover, so I removed the cover, the springs and pressure plate, and all of the clutch plates.
The springs are rusty so I have some new coated ones on order.
The clutch plates are also a mess; some have teeth missing from the outer edge, and there were also sections of friction material loose and rattling around between the plates. So I should probably replace them all too, right?
I'm looking for advice on how to clean the back of the pressure plate, and the spindle/holder thing that the clutch plates slide onto. I don't want to go nuts on it or remove the whole clutch from the bike, but I'd like to tidy it up a bit before installing new plates and springs.
Should some steel wool / wire brush / compressed air do it? Any materials I definitely should Not use in there?
