Aloha,

Living in humid, salt-spray laden atmosphere in Hawaii, I have had
some challenges with oxidation of my iron, stony-iron, and even some
chondrite meteorites. Many have weeped ferrous oxide, staining the
polyurethane membrane with rust. Ugh. I've tried cleaning it off
with alcohol to no avail. Has anyone cleaned rust off their membrane
boxes, and if so what have you used?
