Evening all,
Following on from a thread I was reading a while back about blade discoloration and staining. I thought I'd give my spare Opi 8 the vinegar treatment. As suggested I left it overnight wrapped in kitchen rolled soaked in vinegar and was surprised at the result.
I was expecting a uneven mottled/patterned effect. The result I got, a fairly even, deep black finish surprised me.
It remains to be seen how the new finish holds up to use and if it actually goes any way to helping preserve the metal.
