I bought a Parker 75 Ciselé on eBay. The pen needs a good cleaning of the dried build-up of ink where the nib enters the section. I've soaked it in cool water, lightly scrubbed with a soft toothbrush, and gave it 5 minutes in an ultrasonic cleaner with cool water. Can the silver trim ring handle some pen flush (1 part ammonia and 8 parts water with a touch of dish soap)? What is the difficulty level for disassembly and reassembly? I'm new to the ultrasonic cleaner. How long is too long? If I need to send it to a professional, who do you recommend?
