Without the proper care Seashells can create a odd odor as the true beauty is hidden under different substance like algae.
To Clean a Seashell that does not contain a living organism: 1. Place seashell in a solution containing half bleach and half water until the periostracum, flaky leathery covering the shells, is all gone.
2. Use a pick, toothbrush, grill brush to remove other item on the shells.
3. Use a file or rotary grinder to smooth down the area on the lips that are chipped.
4. For a nice shine, rub the seashell with baby oil.
