Hello Kinya,

I have tried looking up what material are the hohner rivets made of, but it does not seem to clearly described.

Would you happen to know the answer?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Kinya,That would explain

Hi Kinya,

That would explain the rust :(

Is there something I could treat them with to avoid the rust ?

Thanks!

I wouldn't bother with that

I wouldn't bother with that Angel. Applying rust inhibitors would be toxic.
