    L55 bwb

    Has more rust than I would like, but it needed a home. The second 5 is faint.

      Don´t throw away your fake WB´s! Get in touch with me.
      I collect them for reference purposes for the benefit of the hobby (for the right "fake" price of course).

        Nice badge. Sometimes I will use a damp soft cloth to carefully wipe off surface rust.

          yes, I did that lightly, might do it some more. Also put a light coat of WD-40 on it.

                Use water free vaseline instead
                Just a small amount and a very soft toothbrush

                BTW a nice and not so common badge

                Cheers,
                Ronny

                  It can lift flaked paint not to mention leave an unnatural sheen. In other words, make your badge look like it has been cleaned and "fiddled with". As far as vaseline goes, only as a last resort on zincpest infestation. Regards, Ron.
