Cleaning the inside of a WW2 German helmet with the use of Muriatic Acid.

[@cloudy_fn_2641]

Hi, i recently bought a rusty wehrmacht belt buckle, and i was wondering, is there any way to preserve it? And could i use a normal wax that is used for preserving helmets?

@cloudy_fn_2641 you could clean the buckle with electrolysis. I have a video on my channel where I use it to clean the rust of an mp40. And yes you can use the same wax! Good luck

Does it effect rests of paint that is.left over ? And what is the german name for the acid . Mfg

@digging_adventure6439 it strips the paint so don't use it when paint is left. I only use it on helmets that are far gone or have no paint. German word is Salzsäure
