My new TZ playfield support brackets legs and pegs were faded, rusty and very rough looking. Not deserving of a TZ. I took my grinder and a brass brush and give them a good polish. They are not new but look 100 times better.

Here are some pics.

Nice work I'm working on a WW im using sos pads on most. Im going to try that on some of the real bad steel. Thank for the tips.

A light coat of wax will keep them from rusting again.

Super exclusive ad from the Pinside Marketplace!

Yeah thanks, I was wondering what to put on to prevent future corrosion and oxidation.

You definitely want to coat then with something. Any car wax, or non wax finish will probably work. I used a product called Nu Finish and it seems to work pretty well. There are also spray on products
http://www.everbrite.net/ probably like a clear that might last longer.

Or just have them chromed

Chromed It's a player machine... I'll find something easy to put on since I re-installed already and don't want to take them off again.

Chrome polish will help.
