Good morning from Nor Cal,

Dusting off my 2007 22 inch Weber Kettle. Looking for advice to clean off extrier that has paint over spray and 5 years of just being idol.

Thanks in advance,
Roy

Welcome from Iowa. You should be able to clean off the over spray with 0000 steel wool and some dish soap. You will be surprised how it will clean up and shine. Search for forums for how to deep clean a kettle. Single edge razor blades and steel wool brings them back with some elbow grease.

Thank you! I'll do some poking around.

Welcome from Huntsville, AL!  Agree with ASpitzer, take a look on the forum and you'll have a shiny kettle in no time.

Cheers
