Hey Sonny,

It's a little more than a slice http://www.meteorman.org/Admire-839g.htm

I would seal it up in lucite, if I thought that would work.

Nice try:)

Tim

Hi Tim,

The only way to stop the rusting is to send your slices to me. This
dry Nevada climate will most certainly stop the rusting! : )

Hello List Members,

I was hoping someone could help me with this one.
I have 2 pallasites that are starting to show signs of rusting, an
Admire and Fukang.

Can someone please tell me what I can do to stop the rusting. Is there
a way to clean
them up and seal it against any further rusting. I willing to try
anything new that might work.
Any ideas?

I live in St.Louis, its very humid here, I know this might be hard to
stop.
