In Response To: How to clean and restore antique wood/copper chest (carole ann emens)

Is the paint on the metal original or has it been added? You may be able to stabilize the wood with one of the products made for that such as Minwax Wood hardner if not it will haave to be replced. Most trunks are put together with clenched nails so you have to dig out the points and straighten them before pulling.
