I picked up an estate pipe this week that is in need of resoration, the bit is in good condition other than the fact that it is oxidized but the rim is charred pretty bad and it has a couple of dings on the side of the bowl. I am more than likely going to send it off but was wondering if anyone on the board has ever tried a "do it yourself" restoration. My main question is... how would you begin to clean the charring from the rim of a pipe without damaging the briar? Thanks in advance for your responses, your input is greatly appreciated!
