I just acquired an Enterprise meat grinder today. A great snag for the price with V belt pulley. This thing has been laying collecting gunge, some rust, and nastiness. So I plan on hitting most of it lightly with a wire wheel. What do you recommend for a protective coating after clean up. It would be nice to spray some type of oil (vegetable) on iit and hit that with the air gun. What would be your suggestion. Oh and how to clean up the plates with holes in them? thanx

if it is mostly CRUD... I would spray with oven cleaner, let it set for 30 minutes, then wash off with soap and water and scrub brush... For the rust, i would use the sand blaster.. without that, the wire brush sounds good...
i have never tried this stuff, but many brag about it...  ------------- Like them all, but love the "B"s. |
