Great information ... I have learned and found that the copper scrubby will clean the residue off better than steel wool, which is good, but I do like the blacker finish using the copper scrubby to clean the zinc. Love learning from you Ed ...
You guys are sooooo Cool and definitely always make my day...!!!!! I always use steel wool when cleaning Ed & Barb... & there are different Grades I've found and like the Extra Fine 000 or Super Fine 0000 when doing the work. Just for an experiment, I recently used a mixture of baking soda and water to make a paste and used that with my steel wool to clean my stainless steel sink and I couldn't believe the awesome shiny results... Every mark I had in the sink was GONE...! Great video Barb and Ed...! Really appreciate all you guys bring to the table...!!! 👍👍👍👍
i LIKE THE 0000 on solder and zinc but always hate the cleanup of it breaking up into flecks., the patina leaves rust spots everywhere.. so now I will only use medium grit lightly on my solder.
