Does anyone out there know the best way to keep an iron meteorite
from rusting. I recently noticed some buildup on my little one. I
purchased it at a gem and rock shop last year for myself. I thought
about coating it with laquer but I've hesitated until I could find out
what the conventional wisdom was.

Since the meteorite is a personal possession I suppose it might be better
to respond to me via email. My address is [log in to unmask] If members
of museum-l are interested I will post responses.

Thanks in advance,
Chris Lee
