I know there's another thread that is current dealing with cleaning a cradle bell but mine requires a different level of restoration.
I found a crota bell that is probably completely filled with iron rust and also has some on the outside probably due to whatever attached the bell to the leather as well as the ball inside. it's the only crotal bell that I have found and would love to at least have the exterior somewhat clean.
I'm not sure what The bell is made of And how it would react to the various methods of removing rust from iron objects such as vinegar and electrolysis and maybe even molasses.
I imagine I could carefully grind away some of that rust first.
Any thoughts other than toss it in the junk pile or leave it as is?
