Tschapka little renovation

[Naprawiacz]

The material was cleaned of rust.For minor surface restoration I used vine black mixed with glue and shellac.A small variation of a recipe from 1845.After drying, the item was glossed with Bundeswehr paste.

I just found this thread.

My God, what a beautiful little metalhelme! Simply gorgeous.

I love the fact that you are taking the time to bring this helmet back to life.

I would love to have an ersatz of that type. I think it would become the centerpiece of my collection.

Nice find, and wonderful restoration!
