Norrie Posted May 23, 2010 Report Share Posted May 23, 2010 (edited) Hiya, Anyone know what I should use to clean up the sidelplates on my Rizzini 12G ?? Or...should I even clean them up ?...they are a tad dark....I was told by the original owner, that he had'nt cleaned the sideplates in the 7 years he had it...he did tell me to use Toothpaste..tried it tonight, but wasnt convinced........I dont want to go using "brasso" type products.... It's very nicely engraved with pics of various game birds..Tho from this pic, you would'nt think so.......and a decent clean up ( IMHO ) would just finish the gun off... Thanks in advance guys..

Bloke Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 Autosol is good, but a little abrasive. If you can get hold of it, there is a liquid polish called 'Belgom Alu', not cheap, but there is a cheaper paste form called 'Peek Polish' - less abrasive and leaves a protective coating that helps with weather ageing problems, as well as a better, almost 'blue chrome' type of shine.

Marcus Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 Autosol and a cloth, will do the trick +1 I have recently used Autosol to clean up the sideplate on my gun, im very pleased with the results. Go gentle with it and you will be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
