Contacts can also be cleaned with SS mesh if you happen to be a genny user, or former. Cleans well without the OCD.

Ok cool thanks. I tried using toothpaste last time and noticed it made some blackish marks on the negative post screw. It has since faded away so I'm trying to figure out another way for next time.
What number finish is it? I have got #4 about figured out but its still too course compared to the GP finish. #4 is a sanitary finish like on food and medical equipment. I can get it dang near spot on in brass but SS is a lot harder material.
I buy packs of sunshine cloths on eBay and I rub the contacts in a back and forth motion until no more black oxidation rubs off on the cloth and the contact is shinny. It works for the brass button too.
Just make sure if you decide to sand, go slow, check often and on a flat hard surface as its easy to get a bit uneven.
Great idea YB. I happen to like mesh but, boy have I thinned those out. I don't think I could sell the doodlebug.Contacts can also be cleaned with SS mesh if you happen to be a genny user, or former. Cleans well without the OCD.
Doesn't replace deep cleaning if needed, normal maintenance. But for spotty contact oxy, it works great. Those "spot checks".
I've just been using a semi soiled Rag that has Been used with Mothers for a quick shine then clean them all with toothbrush and tooth paste every week. Does that sound Boobs to you fellahs or should I be taking extra steps? I know the Gold contacts aren't recommended to be cleaned with things like mothers so do you think a quick Crest clean would suffice for them? I hat to sound ignorant but I've only been running Mechs since early August and just pick up tips and us common sense as i go.

Mothers is a great polish. Many people use toothpaste. Personally, I don't get it. Great if it works and works for you but imo this seems a bit funny to me as to why anyone would. As there are specific tools for specific jobs.
I've been known to clean cookware with a handful of sand when necessary but, I happen to own a sink and soap now

X # 0726 in the classies as I type this. Thought maybe for those/anyone who might have missed the op to grab one
I don't understand how/why someone could sell his/her "X"! This is one rock-solid mod - built to last. Has the heft - yet is sleek. Smallest sectional in all battery configs. And my-oh-my, what a switch! Gr8 firer and also the 'lock'! Which other mod secures sans a locking ring?
Thus, after selling the "X" s/he is going to buy what?
A. 40.00 more than retail justifies a flip to some people.
B. "Brand new, cleaned it and decided this was not for me" can also mean, my wife is ...... I pawned the tv to buy a PAPS X.
The never used part gives me a clue.

Idaho. Tell us what you're really thinking.
Morning everyone. SO excited for the Paps X for Yankee and all the SnP tanks for my Sophias...
I received a tracking number yesterday (wow...fast service!! thanks so much!)
My question is this: No movement on the package in over 24 hours...should I be concerned? I have never dealt with DHL.
thanks everyone...
signed...overly excited and slightly childishly impatient...

I wouldn't worry, DHL is very reliable on international shipments. There is almost always a one day gap in reporting as it flys and goes thru customs. My last shipments took about 4 days...of course I live about 20 minutes from one of their major hubs at DFW airport.
