skinsfan Posted February 16, 2017 Share #1 Posted February 16, 2017 hi folks,my wifes grandfather served a short stint in China and i was fortunate enough to be given his badges and some other items....my question is did they paint the badges white(mine are) or was this probably done by his kids over the years...i want to clean them up but not if that is how they were meant to be...thanks-scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirk Posted February 16, 2017 Share #2 Posted February 16, 2017 I would say painted by the kids. Now if it a white enamel diamond.....well that's a different story! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinsfan Posted February 17, 2017 Author Share #3 Posted February 17, 2017 no diamonds....inside painted where you would normally see the blackened area on Army badges and on the back............any suggestions on a paint remover that wont harm sterling silver?-scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
