The flat door handles on my CJ7 are what I want on there, so I probably won't remove them. However, they have some rust on them. Any ideas on how I can restore them? Worst case I may just use some "steel" spray paint, but figured someone has run into this before....
 
Well, I'm assuming they're not stainless if they've rusted. But I've had good luck with a wire brush drill attachment and mineral oil. Good luck!
 
red or gray scotch bright pads.:cool:
 
Fine steel wool and oil, water, coke, some kinda liquid.
I like fine steel wool and soapy water.
Do a small test patch unless you plan on painting them.
Some methods will scratch/dull the surface.
