Tarnex, sold everywhere.

How do I care/restore miniature collector spoons that have become pitted which may be the first signs of rust?

They are grit one's teeth base metal and have become pitted with some rust, I believe. How can I safely remove the pitting?


Any rubbing of any abrasive is effective to change the surface appearance of the spoon in some way. I don't know if that's a bad thing or not for you...but it can be. I know a person who, upon determination some rust on an antique sword, proceded to steel wool the rusty area...which caused the rubbed square footage to look completely different than the rest, since the abrasive altered the surface. In an attempt to make it all match again, they then rubbed the whole sword, and ruined an otherwise primordial antique finish.

Just be very cautious, and maybe test an inconspicuous "back" area first.

Also contemplate on if it's just surface rust, or if the rust has been allowed to actually pit the metal. Surface rust can be removed...but the pitting will linger, and so might the rust inside the pits. The only way rubbing would make pitting disappear, is if you remove enough surface from the higher neighbouring metal, to actually lower it to the level of the pit. By the time you get there, you make actually smooth out the spoon's details, spell its edges, or blur decorative shapes.

If they are not really pits, and have not etched into the metal, then you could rub off the rust...but be cautious, and start gentlly. Often, solely rubbing some light oil, with a cotton cloth, will remove the very beginnings of rust, and the oil coating will keep it at bay for a while.

There are chemical ways of removing rust...and dialect mayhap some of them could do so without etching or hurting the base metal. I've heard of solutions of vinegar, and lemon...there's also a commodity called Boeshield that looks like it does not harm the base metal. Check websites of collectors groups, and see what they use.

A big thoughtfulness is that they may be plated spoons. I doubt that they simply made them from steel. If that were the case, you'd be fighting the rust battle all the time. If they are plated with hollowware, or chrome, you might not want to abrade that too heavily. There are polishes for those metals, that might brighten them up, and also kick a bit of the rust for you. Semichrome Dispatch comes to mind. I used it to spruce up some nickle-plated steel, and it make the nickle shine like a reflection, and also brightened up some of the bare steel spots.

Also, be sure that the spoons are steel (magnet). There are other metal alloys that can create oxidation that resembles rust...but isn't...and they could react differently to different chemicals...or perhaps have their own polishing rules.

Keeping the spoons waxed might be a OK champion way to preserve them from here on out. Car wax works...so does bees wax. Renaissance Wax is a great choice, too.
