Jesus - that pipe is a disgrace.
However, u can have it gleaming in little over an hour. Here's what to do.
1. Give it a quick rub with 400 wet and dry. (only 5 mins worth to take off the crusty bits.)
2. Work your way up to 600, 800, 1000 etc to remove any scratches u made. Don't go too mad here - 5 mins max.
3. Then reach for the autosol. You can spend hours with a rag wrapped round the pipe kinda pulling it backwards and forwards. Or u can get a polishing mop for your drill and have it gleaming in half an hour.
That's it really. My pipe was as bad as yours and now its like new, after a couple of hours work.
I've tried some really expensive polishing mops for my drill, but the thing that works best is a fake wool bonnet that fits over a rubber disk on an arbor. cost about £5 from my local wilkinsons.
