# Brasso - A liquid for lightly tarnished surfaces
# Colonial Metal Polish - a liquid that contains very fine abrasives for tougher jobs.
# Gillespie's - a three part kit. Works great for heavily tarnished objects. Follow directions!
# Nev'r Dull - require work and leaves very fine brushed look due to the fine abrasives.
# Noxon - light tarnish disappears with a soft cloth.
# Parks - a two step process for heavy tarnish
# Tarn-X - another liquid that attacks light tarnish
# Red Bear - available at many fine brass shops. Works well and washes off with water.
# Wenol - in a tube like toothpaste. It contains no abrasives and works really well on light tarnish.
Remember:
Wear cotton or rubber gloves in the final stages of cleaning and polishing. The oils from your hands will leave fingerprints that will show up months later! Always wash the brass with soap and water after cleaning to remove all polishing and cleaning compounds!

Try some catsup. The acid in it does a pretty good job on brass.
