I posted earlier in the week about 3 GBD pipes I picked up at the antique store. The most damaged part of all three of these pipes was rim scorch and oxidation. I watched the videos on reaming and cleaning pipes. (thanks Python) I got great results, but was sure I could do a little better. I came up with an idea I have not seen on any You Tube video or article. I went to the store and purchased a Mr. Clean Magic eraser. The results were spectacular. The Magic eraser removed all rim scorch with almost no damage to the rim. (I will insert word of caution here, use at your own risk) I have posted before and after pics of the same pipe. With a little elbow grease it also removed all stem oxidation. I made a visit to my local B&M for a final polish. Great results!!
By the way, when I was at my local B&M they about 30 Comoy pipes manufactured in the 60's and 70's brand new in the box. They were flying out the door.
