Product Information
Full details
The Hagerty Copper, Brass & Bronze Polish is an essential maintenance solution for homeowners, collectors, and musicians looking to restore the natural brilliance of their metal items. Its professional, non-abrasive formula effectively removes tarnish and oxidation from copper, brass, and bronze, offering a protective barrier that slows down future tarnishing. While highly effective at reviving luster, users should note that the polish is intended for cleaning rather than removing deep structural dents or severe corrosion that may require professional restoration.

FAQs
Is this safe for use on copper cookware?
Yes, it is effective on the exterior of copper cookware. Ensure you thoroughly wash and rinse the item if it will be used for food preparation.
Can I use this on brass-plated items?
Proceed with caution. While it is safe for solid brass, the abrasive nature of any polish can wear down thin plating over time. Perform a small test first.
Does it remove scratches?
No, this polish is designed to remove tarnish and oxidation. It is non-abrasive and will not remove deep scratches or dents.
How often should I polish my decorative items?
Thanks to the protective barrier, most items only require polishing every few months, though this depends on local humidity and handling.
Is it safe for use on musical instruments like a trumpet?
It is suitable for unlacquered brass instruments. If your instrument is lacquered, avoid using this product as it may damage the finish.
Troubleshooting
Polish is not removing thick tarnish
Apply a second coat and let it sit for 30 seconds before buffing to allow the active agents to penetrate the oxidation.
Streaking remains after buffing
Use a clean, dry microfiber cloth to buff the surface with more pressure, or wipe down with a damp cloth followed by a dry one.
Product dried out in the bottle
Check that the cap has been sealed correctly. If slightly thickened, add a tiny drop of distilled water and shake vigorously.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin using the polish, shake the bottle well to ensure the ingredients are properly mixed. Always perform a patch test on an inconspicuous area if you are unsure of the metal's finish or age.
Compatibility: This product is specifically designed for copper, brass, and bronze. It is not recommended for silver or plated items unless explicitly stated. Ensure your items are free from dust or grease before application to allow the polish to interact directly with the metal surface.
Care: Store the bottle in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure the cap is tightly closed after every use to prevent the lotion from drying out. Keep out of reach of children and pets, and avoid using the product on items that come into direct contact with food if they require a food-grade finish.
