Some Before and After pics of a Prussian Danzig/Potsdam Musket likely used in the Civil War. It came to our collection with some sort of brown paint and thick plastic coating. Plus all of the metal pieces had been painted gold. It looked like a McDonald's toy!! It was one of the most intense conservation projects I've tackled so far.
