I got a lathe that had surface rust and dried grease staining on the bed ways. There is no pitting to speak of but they look terrible in their stained condition.
Anyone have any way to polish and remove the staining without removing metal?
I cleaned them all up with razor blade and a light hone, operationally they are just fine as is.
The grid pattern is the cross slide top where j had paper towels soaked in evaporust.
See pics, any suggestions appreciated.
