I love my brass weights. The one thing I don't like about them is how they tarnish over time.
I've googled some methods on how to remove tarnish, and I ended up trying the salt, vinegar, and flour paste method. It made the brass super shiny, but my pieces are still pretty tarnished in some places. A lot of sites I've explored recommend stuff like rubbing lemon juice or even ketchup all over the brass. And, tbh, I'm kind of scared to try those methods haha.
What methods do you all have that actually works to remove tarnish. I'd love to hear them!

All the shops I've worked with use Sunshine polishing cloths. They work amazingly.

Unfortunately, they don't ship to Canada. So I'm gonna do a search and see if I can find them elsewhere. Thank you! Edit: All the shops I've worked with use Sunshine polishing cloths. They work amazingly. Perfect! I'm going to try it out. Thanks so much.
