I recently picked up C-H 3 and 4 station "H" type presses and Herter's 6 station turret press. Functionally, they operate well but I am trying to improve the appearance by removing surface rust and restoring the black baked on finish.
How did you restore some of your older presses? What are better rust removing methods?
I even thought about using truck bedliner paint like Herculiner but not sure how it would turn out. No, these are not going to be museum pieces and I will actually be using them to do load development so a "perfect" costly restoration is not required.
Would appreciate any other restoration tips.
