Carter WCFB: Cleaning Day One

     I did not like the results of the Oxy experiment so I thought I would try something else. I picked up some acid used for cleaning grout residue off tiles and mixed up some in a bucket and let the parts sit in that for a bit. When I took it out it looked black but that washed right off with soapy water and a brush. It left it looking dull but over all very good.












The center section still looked pretty rough so I went over it with my Dremel and a fine wire brush. In the before pics, the rusty looking areas are actually polishing compound that I had applied prior to the acid soak. No worries. I will polish on it some more tomorrow.
