Hi everyone. I think this is the rarest item in my collection - Danzig Police M18 helmet, It's a ground dug helmet and I resolved to restore him and I put him in a bath in 15% oxalic acid. Here are pics before restoration.

5 hours bath in oxalic acid ( HOOCCOOH) kills the rust, and now you can see the remains of skull and decal are now much more clear visible
Wow nice helmet and great job restoring it!
Hi,
You have done a good job bringing those decals out, and the helmet look s far better than it did. It is a pitty that a piece has dropped from where the hole is, did you keep this piece ? you could have put it back in just for the display. We had one of this
type of unit on the forum before only the decals were much more pronounced, but i like this one.
dave.
hello
Very nice job with restoration indeed.
Congratulations for having such a rare helmet
