Message: [QUOTE="Bigboote, post: 2712527, member: 7631"] 14..That's one open-ended question! In many cases, if you're trying to sell something that has too much patina, you're not going to get anywhere because it just looks crappy. In other cases, if you remove the patina by polishing or by chemical means, it will decrease the value -- it may no longer be "vintage" or "antique", or if you're polishing and you don't know what you're doing, you may remove too much material. But if you have something really famous, say a trumpet that Louis Armstrong played, then you REALLY want to leave the patina on; it's literally the product of his efforts. 17..Creedence recorded "Who'll Stop the Rain," Tuesday was in the movie. 18..Albatross, dunno which species. 22..Glen Campbell, no idea who recorded it. 25..Sotomayor >We in the southland have lawns to mow already.
