vmaxphil Posted February 10, 2019 Report Share Posted February 10, 2019 Have you tried scrubbing the chekering with a soft brass wire brush as it sounds like oil and grease from hands in it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guzzicat Posted February 11, 2019 Report Share Posted February 11, 2019 Try an old remedy, a hot bread poultice, it works, draws oil out of timber. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
demonwolf444 Posted February 11, 2019 Report Share Posted February 11, 2019 (edited) powdered chalk and water into a paste, slather it on thick and ontop of the aga or in the oven at 30 or in the airing cupboard or something. It what i use on any seriously oil soaked heads of stocks. Takes days, scrub it off with a soft brass brush, and repeat, id be amazed if you needed to do it twice.
