On my last dive trip I found a multitude of conch type shells. I brought home two that were completely intact. How do you clean/polish the shells? They have a few barnicles on them, but basically clean, just dull?

Why rob the ocean when you can buy ready to go shells that have all ready been robbed?
Not judging, just asking.
She uses dental picks for scraping off barnicles. With a little work you can remove all the remnants. You can use a little muratic acid as well but you have to be careful because it will eat up the shell.
