Thanks so much for that reply, Kutter. You never disappoint.

Best to you, SRH

BTW, some years go I did a thorough search for Fred Heinzelman in NJ. I called the listed number numerous time with never an answer. Next, I called the post office there and inquired about the listed address. I was told by them that the address was vacated, so I gave up.

We still haven't gotten to the "method" of cleaning tarnish from real case colors on old Parkers. Three pages and no help.

I would suppose (rather than merely hope) that Jörg Schilling's doctoral dissertation (Dr.-Ing.) also had covered and examined exactly this very subject.

Carcano

Never heard of him or his dissertation. Who is he? Any further information?

His dissertation is from 2003. Unfortunately for me, it was written in German. If that is what you referred to, it appears to be about microscopy techniques, not chemical structure, per se.

On my Perazzis I disassemble, thoroughly clean with acetone, and spray a couple heavy coats of Rustoleum clear poly. That will get it as clean as it's going to get with zero damage, and protect it better than any lacquer on the planet. I do it every 2-3 years on the ones used all the time. Colors have not degraded beyond what might have transpired before I got them.
The oldest is an early 70's gun and I've had it 30years or so. Colors were not too good then but are no worse now and it was out with me every week for nearly 25years.
