This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Even on lacquer you can often use your usual finer brass polish, test first on an more hidden part. Sometime even if there is a little lacquer on the brass, the product for the brass works. Better not be too rude when polishing, and use a very little product on a special cotton for polishing (automotive store) On polyester, had no problems at all, the brass polish actually helps the polyester to shine. In France we have a wonderful polish ("popote" in French") called NIKKO, that can bring to life many lacquers, it soften the surface of cellulose or other lacquers, and allow you to rub them, even if not enough lacquer remain at first sight. It is used too to dry the French polish kind, and clean the last oil traces. Violin makers may have these kind of products, often Tripoli , sulfuric acid and other products mixed.

I assume they are brass. How do you polish without affecting the polyester? Can they be coated with lacquer to prevent futher tarnishing?
