And speaking about rusters... ¿is there any list of meteorites, of
rusters to avoid?
Thanks!

Hi Mckinney and all,
Soaking it in diesel might not be such a good idea as such fuels
absorb water and would further add oxygen molecules to the Brahine
slice causing further rusting. Especially if you soaked it for a long
time. The method suggested by Graham Ensor Sounds like a good one.
To resurface and polish your treated slice, I'd take off any old
coatings and use an ultra fine finishing polishing paper then some
sort of gem polish to finish it off and buff it out. I'd recommend
sealing it with a coating to help keep it dry. I'd watch the piece
carefully for the next few months as the process will need to be
repeated if it starts to rust again.
The other option is to buy lapidary equipment to work it. Costs vary.
Best and good luck.
