<p>[QUOTE="tommyc03, post: 2488426, member: 17665"]I'm not sure what CLR is but I use white vinegar full strength, followed by a cleaning with diluted water to clean up nasty Buffalos that are otherwise unidentifiable, especially dateless. Of course I would not do this to any good ones that are identifiable. This does not work on rust and I've never used acetone on nickel before. I have always assumed that the rusty ones were detector finds that interacted with ground minerals.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
