i use black iron or all clad exclusively myself. I bet this would work for cast grill grates and black iron hibachi grills well too!

I have always used salt and a potato, but this looks a lot less labor intensive, and more thourough

What Spinaker said...
think a bit about it, chrome (chromium) is applied how?
Electroplatin'...
so, were they plated, ya would basically be un-applyin' any/all of that finish, which would make aforementioned sentimentally treasured tools rust even worse/faster...
Besides, I likeys patina...

I am taking full advantage of this warm spell we are having in Minnesota; I am taking the bath out for a run.
On the docket tonight is my Griswold Cast Iron waffle maker. Since it is three pieces, this will take three separate soaks. I have had this piece for over a year and I have not done anything with it, so I figured since it was "warm out", I should gives this waffle maker the TLC it deserves! I am really looking forward to the challenge in restoring this piece of history.
