Try to remove any!! rust, dirt, soil from the surface that can collect humidity from air. Then maybe try to put it to water + NaOH to neutralise any acids inside. I use this sometimes on slices when I finish etchin, but I dont have any iron in dramatic condition to verify if this can help or not. For me oil + silica gel is enough to keep any iron alive. Then clean in water and next in alcohol to remove water, heat and use Balistol or any other good quality oil, heat again. I think water in this case not make any damages if meteorite is just heavy ruster. If anyone have idea what can be use to dissolve NaOH instead of water this can help, becouse alcohol is not a good alternative. -----[ MARCIN CIMALA ]-----[ I.M.C.A.#3667 ]----- http://www.Meteoryt.net [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.PolandMET.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.Gao-Guenie.com GSM +48(607)535 195 --------[ Member of Polish Meteoritical Society ]-------- ______________________________________________ Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
