What happens here

After removing the old ferrule, use emery cloth to clean the exterior of the copper pipe. This ensures a smooth, debris-free surface for the new compression fitting to seat properly and create a watertight seal. Following the cleaning, a new escutcheon plate is slid onto the pipe and positioned flush against the wall.

Goal: Thoroughly clean the copper pipe surface using emery cloth to prepare it for the new compression fitting and install the escutcheon plate.

Tools and materials

  • Emery Cloth
  • Escutcheon Plate

Hide

and feral right off of there. Get a little more of this pipe cleaned back here. Want that discussion to go on. Just a little bit further back. Grab a little emery cloth and all that cleaned up. Grab a couple of discussions out of my garage. Get that. That needs to be smooth bore. Got our new angle stop. So this is the feral.
