@Magne Fahre another nice one! Thanks. I have a roarer 31 but it has some diffused stress cracks, not sure if they were caused by the long storage oxidation or if that was a manufacturer fault. How is the brass on this 37? Cheers, Nicola
Hi @Nicola Francesco Elia . As you can see, the stove has not been cleaned for a few years. It's not as shiny as yours. Because if I polish, I only do it once. And so far I haven't found a varnish to use. The brass is fine, but as you can see, someone has soldered a damage to the right of the filler. I guess there has been a crack there. Otherwise, it is nice in the brass. Magne
Ok, clear. I usually don’t polish the stoves because I like natural patina. Clearly I polish them only if I have to make solder repairs… with flux and heat is basically impossible to save the patina, and the parts must be very clean to be soldered. Cheers!
