dgibson150 Posted 1 March , 2017 Share Posted 1 March , 2017 What is the best way of dealing with this? David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GWF1967 Posted 1 March , 2017 Share Posted 1 March , 2017 (edited) If you search for "medal cleaning" there are a few threads. WD40 and a soft brush has been recommended for the removal of verdigris. Best remove the ribbon first. Edited 1 March , 2017 by GWF1967 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dgibson150 Posted 2 March , 2017 Author Share Posted 2 March , 2017 Thanks for the advice GWF1967 and Gardnerbill. Just for the record, I attach the medal after treatment with WD40 and a paintbrush. I am assuming that the bright bits will gradually fade away. I am leaving the front as is. David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
