Re: SS Relic
looks good, you should treat it with oxalic acid it might bring the decal out more

Re: SS Relic
I wouldn't bother messing with it at all. I think oxalic acid would ruin it to be honest. There isn't much there to begin with and I haven't been pleased with the results from acid in the past.

Re: SS Relic
It looks like its already been treated enough, i'd leave it alone. Maybe a coat of renaissance wax if you can get it on without building up too much white in the recesses.

Re: SS Relic
I guess it depends on it's condition, I just got mine out of the acid and it did wonders

Re: SS Relic
Congrats GP I know you have wanted a relic SS lid for some time now.

Re: SS Relic
Nice lid. Just leave it as is. If anything coat the helmet with some wax. Don't mess with it

Re: SS Relic
Nice as it is - remember, the moment you attempt to clean the decal to reveal more it will "look" like it has been worked on and then the nay-sayers will all cry 'fake' ......... best to enjoy the patina knowing that as it stands it justifies it's credibility.

Re: SS Relic
Congrats on your new acquisition. I'm with the "leave it alone" crowd. Best left as is. There far more chance of causing damage than improving it in any way.
Cheers,
Tony
