How to clean Douglas connectors ?

[w30bob]

Hi Guys,

I picked up a bag of used Douglas connectors at a meet this weekend. They're dull and I'm looking for a way to clean them without taking off the cadmium. Anybody have any ideas?

thanks,
bob

I think it depends on how much time you want to spend doing the cleaning. You could polish them with something by hand but that would take a while. A wire brush is no good unless there's rust on them. I think the jewelry industry makes polishing media which could get the job done but then you are buying a vibrating tumbler.

Hi Bob,

Get an Ultrasonic Cleaner, I use one for cleaning small gun parts.
