Lars and List,
I am hoping that the Vapor Corrosion Inhibitors (VCIs) will help prevent =
rust. These products come as little white felt discs that are soaked in =
the VCI materials. One disc will treat 5 cubic feet of show case and =
contents for at least a year. It also comes in a=20
brown Kraft paper that I put in meteorite storage boxes and riker boxes. =
There is also a Zip-lock type bag that is great for storing those iron =
slices. Now a commercial message: I sell the emitters for $5, the =
zip-locks for $.50, and the paper for $1 a linear foot that is 3 feet =
wide so $.33 cents per square foot.=20

If interested contact me off list. Regards, Fred Olsen

  Sikhote is not the worst ruster, but it=B4s a quite fresh fall, so =
hard
  to say, how do they look after 100 years...;-

  Anyway, the main thing is to keep water away from the irons, so if
  WD40 contains water, don=B4t use it.=20

  I have used for some Sikhotes, which have marks of rust just ordinary
  gun-oil to remove the rust and protect them for the humidity. If you =
live
  nearby the sea or so, it may be wise to use some more powerfull =
tricks.
  If you=B4ll check the archive, there was a quite good list,what to do =

    Hi

    I have bought a couple of very fine Sikhote-Alin=B4s and want to =
protect them from rusting.

    I want a protection like when hunters protect their rifles - some =
kind of oil or wax.
    BUT I dont want a "plastic-like" surface.
    I want them to dry up and look normal, and still beeing protected =
for some time before I have to clean them and do it again.

    I was thinking of WD40, but then I read on this list that it =
contained water.... is there any probleme with that ?

    Any sugestions ?

    Thanks
