Sweet Mama! Looks great!
Thanks Freddy ! Better put an extra pot of coffee on, some of the young pups here are going to need an extra cup in the morning. Happy New Year!

I will post a few pictures starting with the finial . This is that Hero Dockash I picked up in the finger lakes area. The one missing the bonnet.
I started with a citrus based paint stripper, followed by electrolysis rust removal ( battery charger and washing soda ) then brass wire wheel, and polished with 3M pads on a 4" angle grinder. Nothing fancy I just wanted to get most of the pitting out before it got the first flash
copper plating.
The clear should hold up just fine and can be removed with the citrus based stripper
The picture below is the finial just before I unloaded it from the truck

What grade of 3M did you use with the grinder?

These are the discs I use on the 4" grinder. There are 3 different pads in the pack.

So if the nickle has been painted the paint can be removed and the nickle isn’t removed? Interesting.
If that’s the case I have just the candidate.

That's a great job! No matter what you do next, you're preserving something and making it live longer and it looks good too.
