So here are some pictures of my old estate pipes from my Granddad. Are these in good shape? Pictures are front and then back. Do these look Oxidized? How could I do a simple DIY on cleaning these up?

Well I tried the magic eraser thing and I think after 10 to 20 minutes of scrubbing, it was worth it! They are shinny too! I used Curel non scented lotion, a very small amount, and polished it onto the pipes. Just thought it may work when in a pinch. Don't that would ever hurt the stem!

I love doing DIY kind of things! saves money and makes you get creative. I'll try the chap stick trick myself when I start using these.
