Amazing what a little elbow grease, 0000 steel wool and a 3M pad can do!

Picked this up yesterday in this condition -

Repurposed some parts I had on hand and it cleaned up pretty nice. Paint touch up will be done in the future.

I love the Redheads!

Enjoy!

It must have lost half its value removing the hook on the handle

Just kidding! She cleaned up real nice. Great job there!

@swamprb
Nice RRR on that Red. I am partial to those too!
I am curious though, what 3M pad are you using and what are you using it on?

Wife bought a package of assorted souring pads, similar to this pic: http://www.hallamscatering.co.uk/content/images/thumbs/0058976_3m-colour-coded-scourers-red---150x230mm_360.jpg

Never really give them much thought, I use them wet with degreaser/cleaner to cut through the residual crap before using steel wool. Different grades from fine to heavy duty.
