Hello All
I need some advice from my fellow members. I entered pipe smoking more than a year ago when I expressed interest to my Uncle. He gave me an unsmoked brigham 4dot billiard. it was at a B&M in a farming community that went out of business. The steam appeared brown and at he time I didn't know about stem oxidation.
So I have been regretfully smoking it for the past 1.5 years. I read in another post to try oxi clean and then a magic eraser. I also bought obsidian stem oil for when the job is done.
Since I do not restore pipes and this one has sentimental value to me I wanted to see if there was anything else I should think of before starting?
Any and all advice is appreciated.
