Description: Go to getroman.com/RESTORE for $15 dollars off your first order of ED treatment. In this episode of Restore it I restore a rusty 24" Record adjustable monkey wrench, I've had for years. Because it was such a basic item to restore I decided to challenge myself by going for a mirror finish. This restoration was more of a personal challenge rather than something that was done for a customer. Thank you for watching! Subscribe for more videos like this. More information is below.
