What makes you think I’m not already similarly equipped?
(Any good excuse to trot out this heavy bastard, which I don’t have occasion to do often enough anymore. It could really use a polish. There’s a project for the weekend…)
I have a set of matching super historically authentic pants in the same pattern and material (with suspenders!) as well. I might even still fit in them, but I haven’t tried in a while.

What’s the best way to polish that?
Toothbrush and time
Basic Training PTSD coming back – but on a Canadian base with some Brasso and so.many.doors.
Angle grinder and a buffing pad with a heavy dose of Sex Wax
Hahaha! “Buffing pad”.
“Heavy dose,” indeed. ;)
I usually attack it with a terrycloth and some Flitz. A little will go a surprisingly long way.
There are various methods of oiling, waxing, or otherwise preserving it afterwards. I prefer boiled linseed oil for that, personally.
In Ye Modern Times, you could also just make your mail out of something that doesn’t rust. I didn’t, though.
Clothes dryer and a bucket of sand would probably work.
Plus you can sell the self-dismantled dryer for parts after.
Give it to your squire.
Take it to Poland?
Nice mail!
Thanks.

Love it 😀
