LOL Yeah, it’s some work to polish the entire barrel. When the owner was doing Civil War re-enactments, they’d get dirty. He had a couple of teen guys who did the cleaning.
The cannon’s were a little dirty when he first took them to the museum and he sent one of the guys there to clean them the next weekend. He was there for a few hours and he worked non-stop.
I only have to clean the prints off, fortunately.

I wasn’t tempted to spray people with Windex. The temptation I had/have to fight is smacking their hands like you would a toddler. “NO!!” LOL

That was one of the options. LOL!

I guess I’d better head out. Short nap today and I’m getting pretty sleepy. I’ve had more energy today, so that’s a good thing. See ya tomorrow? Or will Friday be opening day? Not sure what happens on opening weekend. :)
