Restoring small parts can be fun too

[Scott H in Wheaton]

Sometimes I get just as much enjoyment from cleaning up the little bits and pieces as I do from getting the big jobs done.

This accel pedal was grimy and rusty.
A little degreasing,
Followed by a medium-to-fine wire wheel
Then 3 days in my bucket o' vinegar...
Total time spent, maybe an hour?
I like that it has the original metal finish and is not textured by sandblasting.
Plus I didn't want grit in the tube that rotates on the cross bar.
