I took a big chance on this ugly duckling. These are before shots of the 3ttt stem with the Colnago panto's






I did use Easy Off to remove the black anodizing, then I did the sandpaper thing. I started with 250 grit and worked my way up to 3000, Then I hit it with Mothers Mag Polish. The stem as you can see above started out pretty rough, so I couldn't get all the scratches out but I think it looks good, not perfect but good.





Here it is installed on the Colnago Master Piu. Notice that I also polished the handlebar.




BTW... that's a smudge , (not a scratch) next to the Colnago Club in the last pic.
