Wire wheel won't shine that thing up. Grinder with a flap disk, or even a grinding wheel (don't get carried away if you use a actual grinding disk). Then, use it, USE IT, USE IT!! Best way to shine a plow..... USE! See if you can find a farmer that will let you go run it in his field. Take a scraper and don't let dirt build up on the moldboard. Scrape it off as often as possible and eventually, it will shine. Then like the IHCadetCollector said, keep it oiled so it doesn't rust up again.

Couldn't hurt to at least knock the rust off it with a wheel or grinder but as you pointed out it will never get as good as it would if you use it in the field. If used enough it should look like a mirror.

Flap disc seems to be doing the best, with brown Roloc's coming in second. I really want to clean it up some first then plow. Guy had maybe 10 plows, and only one with a coulter. There's 40+acres next to me with a hole in the fence so yeah I'll be plowing.

If anyone heard a Tim "The Toolman" Taylor style 'ARRR ARR ARRR' last nite about dark it was me turning dirt in the garden. The 129 pulled it fine, I got a lot of learnin and adjusting to do.
It is a 10" plow, I marked the shop floor on the sides of the plow and measured the distance between. Plowing does polish it more than anything.

Bought a cutivator also. Was pretty rough. Made three new standards from 3/4" round rod(practiced some blacksmithing, heating to red hot and pounding the ends flat and then adding a curve) bought 6 new tines and welded up a couple cracks in the frames. Made wheel stands also(but not in the pic) by welding 1/2" clevis pins to 3/4" round rod-I had part of one wheel stand to copy.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
