Pics still aren't very clear.
Try not using a flash, see if that helps.
Your camera should compensate the shutter speed and ISO for the lack of light. Just need to be a bit steadier.

FWIW, I wouldn't put any more acid in there.

If you want, send it to me. I'll check it out. Just pay shipping.

Only used very little acid on the heaviest transfer areas when I first started trying to clean it up, it helped. the rest was done with 150g sandpaper my hand, and then a red scotchbrite pad chucked in an air powered die grinder with a bit used to keep the pad tight against the cylinder walls. I'll try to capture some better photos, main problem being that im stuck with my cel phone as my only camera, which certainly isn't doing me any service. I'll see what I can do, otherwise, I may send it off to you. Thanks for the offer by the way. ~E

Better photos. One intake, one exhaust. Hope they're clear enough. Again, I wanter to err on the side of caution with this cylinder since it's sought after and NLA from the factory. Here we go.

Your not done yet, but be very careful around the edges of the port.

Adirondack, I'll probably still have you finish the cleanup. I'm afraid I'm just not comfortable going any further, and would rather leave it to someone with more experience than myself.
