The Bic Lighter Stem Oxidation Removal Technique

[gmwolford]

I've found a slightly different method with my oxidized stems. When using a Dremel tool along with a buffing pad it will heat up the stem if ran across very slowly and the heat build up from that alone has turned my stems back to the natural black color.

Interesting! I have wondered about a heat gun maybe working in a similar fashion. Might need to experiment with that!
