Hello all,
I'm in the final stages of bringing back a Griswold Erie #22 p/n 954 from the brink. I've gone a couple rounds with oven cleaner, 2 short vinegar baths, and gone over it several times with a wire brush drill bit and steel wool by hand. It's starting to look really good, but I'm having trouble getting at surface rust in the corners of the stick molds. My 1 inch wire brush for the drill can't get in there and there isn't enough rubbing room to get at it by hand with the steel wool. Does anyone have any good tricks for removing hard-to-reach surface rust? Pictures attached.
Thanks - Ed
