I don't know what made me do this, the wine? fatigue? ennui? but while I was
putting things back together in my van after my San Diego trip I ended up
polishing the metal table supports.


I believe later Westies have these supports painted, but on mine they are
bare metal (plated) and were a bit scuffed and stained. So I took a green
followed by a grey Scotchbrite pad and some soapy water and gave it a
rub-down.


Then I waxed them (home made carnuba/beeswax/turpentine mix I use in
woodworking) so they gleamed.
