Title: Re: back on the beach again Post by: Val Beechey on February 24, 2013, 07:01:34 PM Sounds a bit harsh but it worked well on some of mine. Coke and lemon juice, good scrub between soaks and a bit of patience. Might take a couple of days but it works.
The ones attached were dark brown when I found them. Nice thing about them is they are good underneath. Val Title: Re: back on the beach again Post by: congerman on February 24, 2013, 07:49:06 PM Thanks for the reply val will try that ;) Clive
Title: Re: back on the beach again Post by: WeCan-Octavian on February 24, 2013, 08:11:05 PM Well done, ive experimented with a fibre glass pencil on cupro nickel coins it works a treat, Obviously you will have fine scratches on them but only noticeable under a loop

O.K. on these but wouldn't recommend on anything softer. Val |
