Nice cleaning and patina preservation Ron.  The sales of low calorie spray oil have just increased.  Should ask them for some commission.
See you tomorrow.  Cheers.  Tom.

Ah Ha; most interesting cleaning product!  I think that my wife has a spray can of that stuff in the kitchen cupboard.

Nice fined and thank you for the heads up on using the cooking oil.

Quality item Ron and you rarely see them in such good condition, often just 'partifacts'.

Word to the wise though although vegetable oil may make it look very nice in the short term, I have found that olive oil decimates artefacts long term and I fear olive oil will do the same. Renaissance wax the same as they us in the museum is the answer.

Great find

Good point Neil, I had heard that olive oil is slightly acidic.
