Those stainless clubs won't really shine with polishing like the OP's forged mild carbon steel irons. Stainless has more of a satin finish, so look for a stainless specific polish.

Thank you.

I just use soap and water, but then again mine are copper and I prefer the chocolate brown color and a nice shiny sole and where the ball smacks.

That's just, uh, immature. Way to be a dick to someone new to the forum. Does your e-peen feel bigger now?

Not sure what you just said that, but I thought we were joking back and forth. Who would bother polishing Burners? Seriously now, who?

Funny, I had some of the stuff lying around and my golf bag was right next to me. I figured why not. It really did make them shine, they looked great. I'm 27 work two jobs and have a small child with a pregnant wife, but I found the time

When I played a set of Ping irons I used stainless steel sink cleaner on them. It worked pretty good.

Obviously me. And why wouldn't you? Is it a waste? The bottoms of the clubs get scratched and dirty. I apologize that I'm not as golf club "smart" as you. But I do like to take care of the things I buy.

The next time you feel like being an ass on the internet, just remember this, it's not the size of your e-peen that matters. Because in the world of anonymity, everyone's e-peen is the size of the Empire State building.

So with a chrome finish... does the chrome ever just scratch off? I have some new polished chrome irons and after a few trips to the wet sand traps, the sole on the SW is scratched up pretty good. Can I polish that out or is the chrome scratched off for good?

So does it have to be sea salt water or can you use any old salt and how long do I have to soak my 9 volt battery to make acid?

I can't tell if this is sarcasm but just in case... please don't do this. It can be very dangerous.

Anyone?

Wondering how thick the plating is, I guess.

Once you scratch through the chrome, it ain't coming back. It's possible that you haven't scratched through, just scuffed the surface, so if you're so inclined give it a polish and see what happens.

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      By iacas · Posted

      It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
