Now matter how careful you are you will have some pieces take off on you. You'll be very lucky if they don't turn into pretzels in the process!

I wore welding gloves and a heavy jacket and goggles - still had some scary moments! A face shield is highly recommended ... and a dust mask wouldn't hurt but kept fogging up my glasses!!

Keep in mind that the factory finish on these pieces was "as stamped" from polished stainless so getting a mirror finish is actually over-restoring it.

Also, avoid too much pressure in one spot - if you heat it up it will change color (slightly) but that is irreversible.
