Hi all. Just thought I would post the results of my cleaning efforts. I found these fins on a Welsh beach and knew instantly what they were despite the heavy concretion. Anyway, after a few days soaking in vinegar and a few well placed taps with a hammer and chisel I am quite happy with the results. Even got some markings off it. Not bad for 70 odd years in the sea IMO. Cheers.
