Collectors maintenance - PowerDubs_imp - 03-28-2018

In fact if the discolouration is really bad start with coarse paper (#240?) and work up the grades to 1000 or even 1500 before your chosen metal polish.
I hope whoever reads this realizes that you can only remove so many particles of any given surface before you hit bare metal....then talk about an ugly finish.

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I think the stainless header is, "bare metal" all the way through?
