1 part of table salt to 3 parts lemon juice just apply works almost
instantly with no hard scrubbing. Great for copper also.

I have several boxes filled with brass oil lamps, barometers and clocks I
want
to clean. I was using Noxon 7 or something to that effect. Slow going and
then
I remembered those TV ads for Tarn X. Does anyone know if that stuff
really
works?

Thanks for any tips...

If you'd like to quickly remove tarnish prior to polishing, try a
toilet bowl cleaner such as "SnoBowl" or any other that contains
hydrochloric acid.
