Enchants
It's possible to enchant the Mechanic Items by talking with Mass Charleston (verus04 71, 106).
Enchanting requires Charleston Component (6752) and 100,000 zeny.
Enchants can be reset by paying Charleston Component (6752) and 100,000 zeny.
Enchantment can be done in 3 slots and items refined to +9 and above have wider options.
4th slot has 100% success chance, 3rd slot has chance of failure (resetting all enchant when failed), 2nd slot has chance of failure (either resetting all enchant or breaking the gear).
