[* black] Bits of oxidation (rust), charred buildup, or superficial scratches happen with normal use and can be addressed with this guide. | |
[* black] If you notice pits, holes, cracks, deformations, exposed copper, or other signs of physical damage, save yourself the headache and just replace the tip. | |
[* black] [***Pic two/three still needed:*** deformed tip working surface, ideally demonstrating multiple issues, like deformation and pitting] | |
[* icon_note] For a closer look, use a magnifying glass. | |
