Recovering bleached Cypraea... - conchylinet - 09-11-2007 Dear all, I rencently accidentally sink 2 Cypreae with other shells in bleach and they came out terribly awful, their nice shiny surface turned into a chalky white color... Any idea on how to recover (at least a bit) of their original aspect? Thank you.
