[QUOTE="Ozark Wizard, post: 510577, member: 3652"] When I redid some Falcon bits a while back, I used a magnifying glass and cotton swabs, rubbed with the slightest jeweler's rouge, and made small circular motions with light pressure. Takes a long time if the vulcanite is green, but the cotton is abrasive, as is the rouge. Let them do the work. Sometimes it's good to let the rouge fill in the markings to protect them until you have the stem nice. A shoft bristle ox hair brush will get the rouge out of the grooves without damaging the marks. Works for me anyway... [/QUOTE]
