Cleaning data plates

Post by JahRafa »

Is there a recommended product out there to clean the data plates? I like the weather look but I would like to clean them and make them more legible. I don't know how to post a picture of them.[/img]

If you wish to keep the weathered look then soap and water are your best choice.

I used a product called Brasso. I bought it from Menards, but I'm sure home depot, etc. has it as well.

It cleaned them up really nice. It's not a harsh cleaner, so you can easily clean them to any level you want.
