been doing this for years.

button down drags. immerse in warm soapy water for about 1/2 hour. drain. rinse well with fresh water. drip dry upside down over a towel. after, loosen drags all the way, put in free spool, tighten spool tensioner, apply clicker if it has it.

now, I grease all my drags but wither way, most drag material (by now at least) is not absorbing.

there's reel cleaning and reel maintenance. that's cleaning. maintenance would be taking it apart, lubing, etc. on star drags it's really easy even a guy like me could do it.
