JeffPeterson Posted August 21, 2002 Share Posted August 21, 2002 I've been using chalk for awhile and the knurling on my grippers is filled with chalk. Anybody else have this, if so what do you use to get all the chalk out of the the knurling so that it is functional again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bseedot Posted August 21, 2002 Share Posted August 21, 2002 Hey Jeff. Yeah, I use the wire brush that I use to clean the battery terminals of my car (not the exact same brush though Let me know when you want to train... BC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul valpreda Posted August 21, 2002 Share Posted August 21, 2002 Jeff, A toothbrush works well to clean the chalk off of the gripper handles too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldGuy Posted August 21, 2002 Share Posted August 21, 2002 Use an old toothbrush. Wire would be harder than the aluminum and might cause damage. A toothbrush and a little water with comet cleanser will make your grippers look like new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff T Posted August 23, 2002 Share Posted August 23, 2002 a wire brush WILL cause damage. I tried cleaning my #2 with a wire brush, didn't brush particularly hard, but now the knurling's lost its sharpness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffPeterson Posted August 25, 2002 Author Share Posted August 25, 2002 I ended up trying both methods. I think I liked the tooth brush/cleaning compound more. It's nice to have clean grippers again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAN PETERSON Posted August 25, 2002 Share Posted August 25, 2002 yeah jeff I bet you just can't wait to re-dirty them with your pound of chalk per hand evry attempt on every gripper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mobsterone Posted August 25, 2002 Share Posted August 25, 2002 Old guy: Do you know how to make dentures look new again too? DanP: change your sig line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldGuy Posted August 25, 2002 Share Posted August 25, 2002 All I know about dentures is they don't fit. Why ? Well I have all my own teeth so there's no room. Inspite of being a Londoner and that the English are famous for lack of dental care, my teeth are excellent. I have seen some "blokes" who would not be able to clean up their teeth with a wire brush.
