Title: Cleaning non painted pipes
Post by: paul1478 on March 27, 2025, 11:54:20 AM
Hello,
Spring cleaning my RD, getting ready for the gap. I normally take my pipes off 1-2 times a year and use 200-300 grit sandpaper and WD40 and clean them.
I was wondering what others do? Scotch bright? Same, sand?

thanks
Paul

I never thought of that. I use it for my stainless steel pots and pans, but for some reason, I didn't think about using it for the pipe so I'm gonna give it a try thank you.

I am usually removing/refreshing a Mop-N-Glo finish when I do this.

Wire wheel makes quick work of it.
