<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SeptimusT, post: 2983919, member: 91240&quot;]Still feeling very sad and worried about this one. Having read some of the articles, I am going to follow the general consensus and soak it in distilled water. It sounds like a bad idea, since moisture is the cause, but others who understand the chemistry better than I do (and have been through this before) recommend it, so I am going to do that.</p><p><br /></p><p>I suspect it&#039;s been treated before, or at least covered up enough to be not so noticeable. Luckily, all of the pits I&#039;ve removed seem to reveal good metal underneath, so I don&#039;t think it&#039;s a lost cause. I just hope the soaking doesn&#039;t damage the silvering. I know that chemicals would probably do that, so I want to keep that as an absolute last resort.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
