Friends, I am so happy and appreciative of the suggestions re: cleaning that "Buffalo"


First used the ketchup application and rinse; then started on the vinegar/salt process

Thank you everyone !

the pics are of "before " and "after"

The final pic is a sample of the trophies that I am awarding to my dear piano students at their recital; they each deserve a trophy. they worked hard

( because I worked them hard..they don't get away with anything at lesson time! )

Nice clean up on the Buffalo....but remember don't rub a date coin or mix copper and clad in the salt & vinegar, as they will be pink by taking on the copper color!

Learned the hard way!

God Bless!
