Toluca. It worked wonders! First I removed the rust with a wire brush on my drill, then I followed the instructions. No problem. The slice had been rusting away, getting really ugly, but has been stable for the past year, no sign of the rust returning, and as the members of the COMETS club can attest, it's a beauty. I suspect the purple haze may be from leaving the meteorite out in the sun to dry for a day. But I have not experienced that problem, as yet. I'm sure Bill Mason will be able to help you.
