Archaeological iron

From: Robert B. Faltermeier <*robert_b_f*> Date: Wednesday, February 14, 2001 · robert_b_f

I came across a protective treatment for archaeological iron. It
involves the prolonged immersion of iron into Kerosene. The iron is
then coated with Paraloid-B72. Does anyone recall this treatment.
