Do you happen to have suggestions for good ways to polish?


FWIW I've been using the same dip pens for drawing with waterproof ink
since about 1976. Never done anything other than wipe the ink off when
done using them... Have never lost one to rust.


Seems like a good way to polish . Probably one of the best.

Some are antique mapping points, most are illustrator's nibs from the
1950s...


Sounds pretty cool -- wish I could see them.
