Chris, if you ever have the occasion there is a great short movie of the building of either the empire state or the chrysler building at the Museum of the City of New York. I saw it at an exhibition on Hugh Ferris a while back, I think. It shows riveters at work putting up the steel. It's worth asking for the next time you're there, which I imagine you are every so often.

I hate to say it but sometimes RC is the product to use on limestone --
particularly to remove the black stains... but diluted and NOT in the
hands of a dumb idiot. SO I DID NOT SAY THIS! Remember when saying
"abrasive" was a naughty word? Now we say "micro-abrasive".

I'm thinking water soaking for 48 hours then 200-400 psi.

My ears are ringing... but I'm not sure it has much to do with rivets as
much as tenitus.
