Default My First Estate Refinish

I am doing this more for my own amusement but you can follow along too if you like. I bought this Weber Blackthorne for $18 and it came pretty badly oxidized. I wish I had before pics of the stem because it was bad. Brown and orange oxidation everywhere. Did the bleach treatment and magic eraser and helped a little. Got frustrated and then I just picked up my magic eraser and went to town. I think I worked that stem for 45 minutes. Boy what a difference. Now just waiting for my waxes to come and hopefully I can polish the bowl up nice. We'll see what happens next.
