Bolt needs a beauty treatment.

I left my SS bolt in lymaway, now it looks like krap, especially in the flutes. I tried steel wool with no results. What to do, who to send it to?
TY Don.

Is lymaway like CLR?

do you mean Lime-A-Way? if it is, you probably etched the metal!

10. Does LIME-A-WAY® work on all stainless steel, brass and chrome fixtures? Is there any metal fixture on which I should not use LIME-A-WAY®?​

Keep in mind when cleaning a shower or sink area, LIME-A-WAY® contains ingredients that could etch or discolor metal. The products can be used on some chrome and stainless steel fixtures. Follow all instructions on the product label. Test a hidden area prior to use.
After applying the product, promptly wipe and rinse the area thoroughly to avoid damage. For full details and precautions, please see the product label. LIME-A-WAY® is not recommended for use on other metallic surfaces for risk of discoloration or other types of damage

Who makes bolts of stainless?

If you have a Dremel tool get some white rouge polishing compound and a cloth polishing wheel for your Dremel. It'll polish right out. LimeAway is phosphoric acid base. It really does a number on copper or brass. Amazon has the Dremel, polishing wheels, and the white rouge.

Let's kill a few birds quick like.
Is your bolt bushed?
If not send it to @carlsbad , then have him forward it to @boltfluter for a ceracoat in the flutes and polish.
Easy peasy! You won't be disappointed.
If its already bushed send it to @boltfluter directly.
See how easy the problem is solved.

Sure beats having to do it yourself with a Dremel and polishing wheels...and a mess, and a lotta work too.
