I cleaned the ring groves with a piece of old ring and the groves seemed to clean up fine. I did not take any aluminum out on the width of the groves but I did scrap the back side of the groves here and there. I hope that's OK.


Thx


>>>*Sure, that area is actually pretty strong. I end up with bright spots myself if I try to use a piece of a ring, the trick is to use the inside edge at the gap and draw it towards you rather than push it away. The carbon breaks up and falls out normally. Wear gloves of course or keep bandaids handy....

I have had some that were pretty gummed up, if real bad I stick them in a blaster using walnut shell as a medium, that makes short work of the job.

I tried sand blasting a couple of times years ago and learned my lesson there...*LOL**...*EB

*Beats the he** outa me!....*LOL**...
