Sword Restoration
Taking off from the suggestion of VANDOO to restore my rusted gunong, i also did try restoring other swords. Here are the result. Please take note that this is just experimentation on my part and i just soaked it in vinegar then finished it with a metal polish. No sand papering.

Soak for how long?
Very nice. How long did you soak them in the vinegar? One bath, or multiple soak / wash / soak / wash cycles?
Thanks. Dave |

Soaked them overnight only then finish the rest of the rust by metal polish.

Another restoration job
Here are other restored swords particularly the rusted gunong posted before. Unfortunately, it seems the true state of the metal was also revealed.
