Roman Helmets From Scratch>paint removal etc

AVE! Vale

WOW very good price on that Corinthian helmet. Can you usually get them that cheap? If you can I would say GO for it! and bugger the budget thing. Way to go Vale!

Thanks for your message mate!

There is nothing at all caustic or concerning with this technique the ONLY agent other than good ole H2O is common everyday washing powder same thing you wash your cloths with so there are no fumes at all. If anything just that nice fresh laundry fragrance.

I stripped a WW2 shell last night it took 20 mins on the boil and the paint literally slid off the shell.

Thanks heaps for your response gents n' bros n' sons n' such!
