Re: Erie 2nd Series #9 Star Makers Mark Restoration

I was wondering the same regarding the line on the #9.

The only tool I used to clean it up was a 0000 steel wool pad. I didn’t know at the time that that grade is for polishing. I recently bought...

Re: Erie 2nd Series #9 Star Makers Mark Restoration

Update:

#9 and #12 are restored but I have rust issues with #11. The finishing of #11 seems to be different than the other two. The spout interiors aren’t smooth like the rest of the inside and...

Re: Erie 2nd Series #9 Star Makers Mark Restoration

Ok, sounds like I'm still on the right track as I don't plan on restoring any more pieces. The #9 is restored and the #11 and #12 are soaking in the attic where the temps are much warmer. Sounds like...

Re: Erie 2nd Series #9 Star Makers Mark Restoration

QUESTION:

I've been checking on the pans throughout the soak phase by pulling the pan out of the garbage bag, wiping the muck off, inspecting, respraying, and then wrapping in a new trash bag to...

Re: Erie 2nd Series #9 Star Makers Mark Restoration

Re: Erie 2nd Series #9 Star Makers Mark Restoration

I now also own an Erie 3rd series #12. I swear I don't have collection fever as I wasn't planning on owning three skillets but it just worked out that way. If I were looking for a collection strategy...

Re: Erie 2nd Series #9 Star Makers Mark Restoration

Update:

The #9 has been soaking for a day and the #11 for two days.

Re: Erie 2nd Series #9 Star Makers Mark Restoration

I was gifted this Erie #11 First Series today. It is a bit warped, the high spot can be seen in the photo but I still think it's awesome. I'll feel bad if I mess this one up but not as bad as I would...
