side of tip

[tinman467]

What do you burnish the new side (of a newly installed tip) with ? Does anybody use that liquid stuff on the sides after an install ? How well does it work ? Thanks guys.

I use saliva (or "spit" in laymen's language) and a piece of leather or cardboard.

Spit and a piece of leather

A touch of shaft sealer and a soft cloth held in place to heat it up. I never know when I'm gonna run out of spit.

Side of Tip

I wet the side & burnish with a piece of leather, and for a finishing touch apply a dab of Kiwi Neutral shoe polish, give it about a minute to dry, and buff with a soft cloth. Really makes it look good. A small can of that stuff will probably last a lifetime for this purpose.
