Stick it in the fridge
|
A couple of my Sankes are a little rough.
![]() I didn't know how far I'd take the cleanup process but I thought I'd give them a little TLC. I figure if I screwed one up, I'd cover it with insulation and make it the HLT. I took a guess and started with some 100 grit on a palm sander but it did put more scratches in the metal than I wanted to. Then I got this Gatorgrit #2 pad for my angle grinder. You can see the left side is the sanded, the right side is a light touch with the pad on the grinder. I'm almost done with this one keg and the pad is still hanging in there. Not bad. ![]()

I'm sure it will work on cornies and I'm gonna hit them next. The pad on a grinder works really fast too. The pad is actually similar to a 3M scrubby so it's really hard to relate to a sandpaper grit. I'd guess it's doing something like a 220-400 finish. The gator stuff is available at Lowes. I also picked up a buffing pad for the grinder and got some polishing compound. It's hard to see in the pic but even the shiny spots that I finished have swirl marks that I hope the polishing gets rid of.
