I work with a collection in a small historical museum where we want to
display some ferrous metal items from the collection. I have seen in other
museums ferrous metal items on display that appear to be coated with a
somewhat shiny material presumably for protection. I have seen a similar
coating on monument plaques that are outside. Anyone know what this is and
can it be acquired and applied easily? Are there downsides to its use?
Thanks, Keith Routley
