[polishing corroded spokes and bolts, etc]

[before and afters of the pipe. Got a solid 20 hours of labor into cleaning it up by hand with various stages of sandpaper down to various stages of scotchbrite.]

I love this stuff!
I just don't see myself ever getting time to do this until I retire.

Very cool post

When I retire I'll have more time to race. I can't see myself polishing pipes so it's too pretty to race.

Like I'll ever retire.
