Clean That New Reel.

I just received a high end JDM Reel this morning. Like a kid with a new toy, I had to tare it apart. I laid clean paper towels out and started the disassembly. After removing the handle/drag assembly, the side cover and starting to remove the gear set, something caught my eye. Laying behind the main gear was these 2 metal shavings. Doubt if they could have done any harm, they're quite small, but I still don't want them around my aluminum gears. Better safe than sorry. Brian.
