[meteorite-list] Cleaning Meteorites.

[ensoramanda]

Hi All,

I have read several posts in the past about hints on cleaning caliche 
off meteorites but have never seen any definite tried and tested 
methods.  I have some NWA meteorites which obviously have some great 
fusion crust features/ flight markings in between the caliche hidden 
areas and it looks like they still exist under the caliche. Is there 
anybody out there who has cleaned this off successfully whilst preseving 
the delicate textures in the glassy crust and is willing to share their 
trade secrets.?
