![]() This is what it looks like now:-
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The inner rim was also coated but not as hard or as heavily and that sort of came off. Have used about half a can of wheel cleaning foam on these and had a scrub at them with a non stick pan scourer and it just rips the scourer up. The front face is not coming clean in the corners and around the valves either ![]()
