Title: Restoring finish on old air compressor
Post by: DexterMorgan on April 29, 2013, 08:23:32 PM
So I acquired an older air compressor today.  It works like a champ, but its super dirty and I was wondering if there was any special cleaners I should use to restore it and bring the outer shell back to life!! 

Thanks.

When you're done, could you swing by and clean mine?

Bottle of S100 has greater monetary value ;D

Sentimental value has no price........

I used to sell and fix (total out) those MANY years ago.

Hope you have many happy years of service [thumbsup]

Thanks.  It was given to me by my grandfather so it definitely has sentimental value to it.  Th thing works awesome though.
