aardvarkash10 1,147 Posted November 3 Share Posted November 3 What's the trick? Or do I drop it to the local metal refinishers and let them do the biz? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CarpeDiem 560 Posted November 3 Share Posted November 3 Lemon juice and baking soda into a toothpaste like consistency. Wax on, wax off. Or Brasso if you want to go down the chemical path. Then finish it with a metal lacquer like protectaclear. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LBD 196 Posted November 3 Share Posted November 3 A cloth buffing wheel on a bench grinder would make quick work of it, but brasso and a couple of beers to while away a relaxing arvo on the veranda also works well and is more satisfying. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
aardvarkash10 1,147 Posted November 3 Author Share Posted November 3 I've tried brasso, it's not even looking at it.... Might go the acid paste route. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Psyche 879 Posted November 3 Share Posted November 3 Lemon juice does the trick, or citric acid from the supermarket. Leave it overnight 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Black Panther 1,808 Posted November 3 Share Posted November 3 Coca cola, overnight soak. You'll never drink that sh*t again but your tiller will have a shiny new seat. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

aardvarkash10 1,147 Posted November 4 Author Share Posted November 4 Tried with some vinegar tonight. Then I found some dry acid pool pH balance stuff in the cupboard - sodium superphosphate potassium permangler or similar. Gonna play chemist this weekend. Could end up looking like a meth cook.
