[meteorite-list] Iron slice etching questions

Hi Shawn,

I have used Ron's technique with great success.  It takes practice to  
learn the timing.

To answer your other question, yes, acetone works well to remove a  
lacquer clear coat from an iron and does not damage the piece.  A  
toothbrush helps get lacquer out of cracks.
