    So, I am having my 360 block prepped and am starting to pull out spare parts and get them ready. All my .030 over pistons look like this. I guess they got oxidized. I have tried parts cleaner, vinegar (google search) and can't get them cleaned and polished up. Thought I'd ask before I pull out some pads or dremel tool. Really wanted to reuse these from my parts stash and save a few bucks. thumbnail_IMG_2780.jpg thumbnail_IMG_2778.jpg

    Not sure but you might blast them with walnut hull media. Maybe someone else has tried this.
