List,
First I want to thank John Gwilliam for his informative response about
rusting chingas and Nantans.

My question is in regard to Sikhotes that I've saw being sold in Tucson
by various European dealers.
The specimens looked exceptionally well preserved.
No trace of rust.
The color was so dark that they look painted.

Does anyone know what process they used to get these super results?
Thanks,
Ken Newton
