Copper Cleaning Tips
Posted under Cleaning Tips by Shue
I have a brass vase in my living room. The only fact that bothers me is no matter which dishwashing liquid I use, I cannot get the original shine of these copper and brass vessels. One friend told me this helpful tip.
Take a lemon slice and dip it in some common salt. Rub this slice over the copper or brass pot and you will discover that it gets back its original shine even as you are still cleaning it! The lemon is acidic and works wonders for copper and brass items. Don’t forget to wash off with water finally!
I have used the lemon and salt method before and it really does work. I have also used it to clean some of my sterling silver rings and it works well on them too! What is the best method to get red wine stain out of a cotton t shirt?
I have Revereware along with other copper pots and pans. I have been using Brassmate liquid brass and copper cleaner on them for years because it is non-abrasive and takes less than 20 seconds to completely clean and polish an item without any rubbing (which scratches) at all. Brassmate can be used over and over again, too, without losing potiency.
My restaurant buys brass cleaner called Brassmate. It is a non hazardous liquid that requires NO rubbing at all. I use it on my copper pots as well as my brass at home. Brassmate is a good product and I’m just passing on what I have found.
