>Best way I`ve found to clean up knurling is to use a small wire brush(like the kind plumbers use to prep joints,about the sizeof a large toothbrush)and brush in the direction of the knurling,both ways.It`ll be shining in no time.

I use these brushes all the time for tool cleaning and they can even remove rust from plane bodies down to brite metal while still leaving what`s left of the jappaning intact and unscratched.Think of them as"The Hulk`s toothbrush",that`s what my son calls them.

>thank you - tried the wire brush it removed most of the heavy scale but looked like it was going to scratch up the smooth areas, now I'm setting up for electrolosys.
