Some CW Stuff

[eagles9259]

After digging nothing but junk for the first 20 hours on my MXT, I finally have a few things to post. Sorry if the picture quality isn't great and if anyone has any suggestions on cleaning the button, I would like to hear them.
Thanks,
Matt

Nice finds!
I clean my buttons with soap and water.
for the really stubborn ones, very lightly brush it
with a Q-tip dipped in peroxide.
Good luck.

Thanks guys. I can't tell what's on the button.

fortbball9 - thanks for the link. I guess I'm going to try some aluminum jelly and see what happens.

only try aluminum jelly if there is gold gilt visible.Don't use it if you cant see any.
