New O-rings.

I have an Olympos HP-101which I bought over 30 years ago. I use methylene chloride, which is harsher than just about anything one can use to clean the brush and the original O-rings are still good. Lightly lubricating the rings with a minuscule amount of silicone grease or petroleum jelly, applied with a Q-Tip, prevents rubber rings from dry rotting.
