Engine case cleaning

#1 PostAuthor: Paul Mc » Thu Sep 01, 2016 10:39 pm

Hi Guys,
I've got a Z1B that I'm starting to restore. The engine casings are ok. But show some signs of weathering,very light furring and a bit dull ( a bit lik myself!). The engines coming out to allow the frame to be painted. But I wonder is there a way to clean up and restore the finish to the crankcases,barrels and heads without stripping the motor.
As ever any help gratefully received.
Cheers Paul
