Hey guys,
So the other threads made me pull out a pair of 1.7/1.8 SS HE's that I've had lying around and clean them up. Here's my problem though, the easy off worked like a charm. I wiped them down and started polishing with the very fine steel wool. I'm finding oxidation spots though, will it just take some elbow grease with the steel wool and some polish to get them out or do I need to do something else? Thanks all -- Steve |
