Restore Rusty Webber Q Grill Grates with Vinegar, Salt, Harbor Freight Wire Brush, and Ryobi Drill 

In this restoration project, I used
- 2 gallons of distilled vinegar and some kosher salt
- 3 wire brush wheels and 1 cup brush from Harbor Freight ( • Warrior Wire Brush Set... )
- 1 Ryobi drill
- 1 Wire brush
- 1 screw driver
WARNING: Do not wash the restored grates with water. Raw iron reacts to water quickly. You can wipe the grates down with paper towels. Just wipe them till the towels come clean. You can repeatedly rub a thin layer of cooking oil on and wipe it off with paper towels. Again, when it's clean enough to your liking, you can send the oiled grates into a 350-400 degree oven and bake the grates for 30-40 minutes. I repeat the baking process twice or three times.
