Thread: First Restoration

Thanks, I'll do that. what would you recommend for cleaning on those scales? I don't know if light sanding would be feasible given the raised scroll work. Maybe a polishing compound of some sort?

Indeed, the inside you can easily, but carefully, clean with some wet high grit sandpaper. The outside I would just use some non abrasive polishing compound or plastic polish. Q-tips help clean around the embossed parts of the scales.

Thanks for the..........(wait for it)........"Tip"!
