How Do You Remove Corrosion From Copper Foil Stained Glass -Dtg?
Sometimes we find that the metal surrounding a piece of glass begins to corrode. It is quite easy to remedy the problem. Some folks in the chemical industry refer to this white powder as “mold”, but I believe they are mistaken. Mold doesn’t grow as fast as I’ve seen some oxidation take place. Here are some beveled stars that have developed a white powdery coating of oxidation. Take a small piece of the cotton that comes in a can of “Never Dull” (or other silver polish available at hardware and craft stores, as well as on-line). Rub the lead lines and get them well coated with the chemical on the cotton. You’ll see that the glass gets a little cloudy from the coating. Take an old rag and polish the lead lines very vigorously. This is where elbow grease really pays off. Here the polishing has begun and you can see that the glass gets a high luster as well.
