Leave them outside for a month or two, or dig them down in garden.

Dear friend,

plate brass and dip it in deanco 037/ tellurium di oxide. after this apply red wheel/ tub it in pink tubbing shot for half an hour.you will get the final finish like a old horseshoe.

If you need any further clarification let me know. bye
