<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Harhir, post: 4097831, member: 20274&quot;][ATTACH=full]329853[/ATTACH] I have an 1920&#039;s Wardrobe Steamer Trunk which I am currently restoring and upcycling. The interior was all nasty and ripped. Plus many parts were missing.</p><p>So I gutted it and decided to convert this into a mini-bar. I am basically remodeling the interior but I like to keep the outside as original as possible.</p><p>I already had to brush down the metal hardware on the outside (corner braces, hinges, locks...) since this hardware was encrusted in rust. Not just a bid patina.</p><p>The other parts don&#039;t look to bad. Some paint stains and lots of scratches. This trunk has seen its fair share of abuse.</p><p>What is the best way to restore the outside without destroying the patina too much?</p><p>Just a thorough clean (what to use?) and a coat of wax or polyurethane?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
