Larry, Flitz works very well to shine up a brass fallboard inlay. No damage to the surrounding poly that I can see, as long as you are not too aggressive with the polish. Clark A. Sprague, RPT www.clarkspianoservice.com ----- Original Message ----- From: Larry Fisher RPT To: pianotech at ptg.org Sent: Sunday, December 11, 2011 9:12 AM Subject: [pianotech] Brass inlay I’ve used plastic polish to rejuvenate brass inlay. The surrounding poly ends up being just as shiny as new. Some brand names would be Novus #2, Mirror Glaze #5, Maguire’s #7. The last one is easily found at auto parts places and I butchered the spelling. Buffing compound works but you may have to finish with a finer grit for a scratch free result. As I recall, polishing compound isn’t as fine a grit. Toothpaste has worked in a pinch. Koenig makes some products that work quite well. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
