Clean up the joints with a scotch brite pad...The green ones.  They work
great.  Then apply a light coating of an anti oxidant that you can buy at
Lowes or Home Depot.  Noalux or similar.

No need for sand paper.

Good Luck!

What do you guys think?

Just had a TitanDx delivered today. All the parts are there although it is a
bit used.

Came from an SK.

I don't really want to just throw it up. I would like to refurbish it first
(not only honoring the antenna but the SK as well).

Has anyone ever done that with any antenna, much less one this
sophisticated, I have not.

I think I first want to clean the elements. I was thinking about using a
soft brillow pad or light sand paper.

Then I thought it might be best to ask on the reflector what you experienced
guys would recommend. 

After thinking about it I thought I might damage the antenna by changed the
wall thickness of the antennas elements.

Code may be taking a back seat for now,
but the pioneering spirit that put the code there in the first place is out
front of it all.
