Title pretty well says it all. I live in a dusty as hell area, and after 4 or 5 years of sitting, it's time for a deep cleaning. I'll need to disassemble/ reassemble, which I'm a bit nervous to do. any advice, or better yet, links to a guide? thanks in advance!

Strip it down, remove the metal chain pull, hose all of the plastic parts down in the shower. Hit it with some dish soap and on old toothbrush. Hose it down again. Maybe hit the chain with a little oil or we-40, Let it dry, apply some new Toyhax decals.

It's really not too bad. I completely disassembled the one I purchased earlier this year. The silo is the only part that can be a little tricky since there's glue at the base and you have to separate it carefully if you're fully taking that apart as well.

make sure you have some q-tips (i think that's what Americans call them. Cotton buds we call them) for fiddly nooks and crannies. I found them very helpful when cleaning my vehicles.

I got no advice, never owned a Terrordome, never sold over here or the Flagg in the UK/Ireland, so probably never will :( … normally I just give my bases/vehicles a good dust first, then wash with a damp cloth?
