Wow, some beautiful restorations! Is there a thread / page somewhere that offers tips / do's-don'ts? I'd love to get mine looking this nice.

Here's a lakeside edition. Spent the past week at a nice spot on Lake Gaston in North Carolina.

I knew I would be grilling, so why not clean up a couple nice old Webers that happened to be sitting around.
Yeah, someone did what you think they did...


Anyway, an hour or two with 0000 steel wool and Barkeepers Friend:

Bought one new food grate and one new charcoal grate locally. Shimmed the legs on the OTG with beer-can trimmings. Cooked on both all week. Ribs, shrimp, chicken, corn, burgers, brats.
Note to self: Bring steel wool, BKF, razor scraper, magic eraser and a clean grate on every vacation.

Overall it came out pretty good. The lid has a few places where the porcelain did not fade due to long dribbles of something.. nothing I can do about that.. but it's ready for more cooking!
