[meteorite-list] I'm Baaaaack... :)

Hi Gary,

I use a product called "Bar  Keepers Friend" to freshen up my etched irons. 
It comes in a powder and liquid  form. Get the powder one. You can find it 
in the cleanser isle of most grocery  stores or Walmart. Wet the etched 
surface with warm water then mix the Bar  Keepers Friend into a paste, then 
gently apply it to your etched surface. I use  my finger to rub it gently for 
about 2 minutes. Then rinse with water, then soak  in alcohol, then dry in an 
oven, then soak in ATF (Automatic Transmission  Fluid), wipe dry and your 
good to go.

Cheers,
Jim K

Though I've been away for some time in recuperation I am still alive  and
kicking and VERY grateful for this list's members for their help in  my
hard times a few years ago.  Getting well enough now to get back to  my
collection and noticed a Gibeon slice has oxidized enough so the  etchings
have severely faded.  Anyone know how to restore the etchings  without
re-etching?

Also, I noticed a new trend in selling mets on  eBay.  Most are selling for
Buy Now or Best Offer.  What's up with  the market?
