Thump) has a novel way of doing this type of cleaning. Though his particular method has risks associated with it (such as warping). Be forewarned!

A question I have is about cleaning corrosion.....how? Today I am referring to the metal frame in the action. I have completely stripped the action, and want to the clean up the metal frame parts. Somebody in the past had dabbed on with a brush as far as I can tell, silver paint to hide the corrosion. I thought an electric drill with a wire brush was overkill, and would damage the wood parts, a Dremel tool seems like it will hardly put a dent in the job. That leaves steel wool? Or a hand wire brush. Thanks. Tom ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
