Therefore, today we will teach you how to do brass polishing at home without hassle!
Things you will need
Lemon Juice
Baking Soda
Soft Cleaning Cloth
WD-40® Multi-use Product
Step 1
Check if the material of the object is brass!
Before you go ahead with your DIY brass polishing project, it is pertinent to check that you are working with brass.
Get hold of a magnet and check whether it sticks to the object or not? If the magnet sticks, your accessory or furniture piece has brass in it.
Step 2
Making a Paste using Lemon and Baking Soda
Lemon & baking soda are powerful natural cleaners on their own.
Mix these two into a paste to yield a magical cleaning agent that helps remove any build-up on any metal surface.
Take half a lemon and a teaspoon of baking soda in a small bowl.
Change the quantity of these ingredients to suit your needs or the size of your project. First, squeeze the lemon into the bowl, and then gradually add baking soda over the liquid so that it starts to fizz.
Once the fizz has settled down, start stirring the mix until you have a paste.
Step 3
Using a Soft Cloth to Apply the Paste
Work the brass polishing paste you have formed into the brass.
For best results, we recommend that you rub the paste using a soft cloth gently over the brass in one direction only.
You can even use your fingers to apply this paste equally over the surface!
Step 4
Rinsing Off the Paste and Leaving To Dry
Use a soft, damp cloth to rinse the paste thoroughly from the surface.
Then use a clean towel to dry the surface.
PROTIP: Use WD-40 Multi-use Product for Polishing
WD-40 Multi-use Product helps clean tarnished brass pieces & restore their shine.
Not only this, but it also helps to protect the brass from losing its luster; by forming a thin protective layer on its surface.
Spray WD-40 MUP on a soft cloth & clean your brass accessories with it.
Finally, you should see that your brass home décor is as good as new!
