    Polishing prop

    Any suggestions on how to clean caked on grunge and return a Stainless Steel prop to it's former glory? My prop is almost grey in colour due to the coating of grunge on it. I have tried steel wool, and Silvo with no result. Any ideas are welcome.

    The best method is to let a prop shop do it. They have what you don't...
