Subject: Gold Tarnish.

Greetings Mighty Techneters.

 

Under normal environmental conditions, (As in no special effort is being made to create and maintian a particular controlled environment) how long will it take for Gold (gold fingers) to tarnish or show evidence of oxidation?

 

I am not considering any extremes in temperature and or humidiy.  Just on a shelf at an assembly house.

 

I know how to clean them up, but someone asked me and I didn't have any range of responses to offer.

 

 

Thank you,

 

 

Steve M.
