That built up carbon is tough to get off. I've literally scraped them with a file, using it sideways. One of those small cabinet type sandblasters would be great for this.
This is the strongest solvent you can buy in this town. Maybe if it don't work before I head down to New Berry for the parts I'll pick up some Berrymans Solvent. I know that works.
The carbon on the last 2 valves is pretty thick. I don't think sand paper would work. I have a cabinet sandblaster but I don't have a clue what type of abrasive to buy that wouldn't damage the seats.
Ya it is black beauty sand. Do you think that might work? If not what do you think will? I'd rather avoid using a tumbler to avoid chipping the valves.
It's not out of the question but other than the build up of carbon on two of them, they are fairly decent. I'm trying to keep the restoration as low cost as I can.
