How do you clean the mouth piece on your bits? I found an o-ring snaffle in my tack room that hasn't been used in I don't even know how long and the mouth piece is rusted. How/what is the easiest way to clean it so I can use it?

If you set that bit in a small tupperware dish and pour a can of Coke over it and let sit in Coke for 24 hours.   It will soften all the rough edges and sweetens the flavor of the mouth a bit.   When you take it out,  just wipe with a brillo pad and rinse and your ready to go.

I use Flitz metal polish, then soak it good and long and rinse. Then brush it with a toothbrush and toothpaste. The minty flavor is nice.
