[QUOTE="Dughug, post: 13706, member: 157"] R_G_Bargy is on the mark with his recommendation of oxalic acid for cleaning your crystals & gems but if you are using it from the hardware store remember to use it diluted and please wear glasses. I have dug up heaps of oxalis (known as sour sobs here in SA or sour grass in Vic) put them in a bucket of water it forms a weak oxalic acid. left it for a week with my rocks and then washed off with soap and water has been very effective for removing ferrous & other stains. Give it a go & see if it works for you. [/QUOTE]
