Although the vertical teeth are in pretty good shape in regard to dents and damage, there is much corrosion especially on the sides of the teeth. After trying several levels of polishing attempts, I”m not sure I”m going to be able to restore to acceptable quality. I thought about fully dismantling it so I can polish each tooth, but this could take another 12 years!!</font></div><div class=""><font size="4" class=""><br class=""></font></div><div class=""><font size="4" class="">Moss sells a reproduction grill for $500.Does anyone have any comments on the quality of the reproduction part?
