Hi All,
I've obtained two used Harter Magnesium Speed Pans and I would like to clean them. Is there any recommended method or procedure?

Thanks,
Henry

start with the green scrachy pads your wife uses when cleaning. then sand paper then you can polish. i have not tried ultrasonic but that may work also.

Bill Hughes:
Steel wool or Scotch Brite pads....you don't want it shinny,  just smooth

Joey Mathison 9806:
 the chrome look is more pleasing to the eye when put on display.not as fast as one that is a bit rougher. are you going to use these pans to fly speed?

If it is magnesium material in the pans, they will not stay shiny for long from my experience when I used them for Rat Racing years ago.  I even tried a clear coat of dope at the time.  DOC Holliday
