Default Re: Stainless Trim Restoration.

I've done lots of pieces...1000's if I dare to guess. Best to go get yourself some junk trim and practice....practice some more and then you'll know if you have the knack, desire and most of all patience. I started with hammers,anvils, wood blocks, custom rub blocks, files and several buffing wheels.Custom metal work, sometimes, is best learned by trial and error. I do fabrication for a living,I straighten a lot of metal and 99% of what I learned was just thru practice and time. Not sure what they teach in schools, but without practice/ patience you'll never be a good "tin bender" .
