The toaster is fairly easy to dismantle, but (a) I don't posess, or know anyone who does posess a gas paint stripper, and (b) the elements themselves show leakage resistance between their metal frames and the actual element windings. I proved that by disconnecting & removing a couple of them, so unless there's any way to cure those leaks then the only way to repair the toaster would be by fitting new elements, which is uneconomic.
