Restoring Brass & Copper: Bringing Old Metal Back to Life with Goddard’s Polish

Brass and copper can lose their natural warmth and shine over time, especially when exposed to air, moisture and handling.
With the right polish and a little care, even heavily tarnished decorative pieces can be restored to a cleaner, brighter and more presentable finish.

Why Brass and Copper Need Regular Care

Brass and copper are beautiful metals, often used in lamps, decorative fittings, antiques, marine items, handles, household ornaments and collector pieces.
Their warm colour makes them stand out, but over time they naturally develop tarnish, dullness and oxidation.

While some people like the aged patina look, many brass and copper items look their best when cleaned, polished and protected.
A good polish can help remove dull surface tarnish, restore the natural metal colour and leave the surface looking brighter and more refined.

The Difference Between Tarnished Copper and Polished Copper

The images show a strong contrast between untreated oxidised copper and a cleaner, polished copper finish.
The greenish discolouration on copper is a common sign of oxidation and ageing. While this can be part of the character of antique pieces, it can also hide the warm, rich copper tone underneath.

Goddard’s Brass & Copper Polish is designed to help bring out the natural beauty of brass and copper by removing tarnish and helping leave a brighter finish.
For decorative pieces, household items and display metals, this can make a major difference to the final presentation.

How to Use Goddard’s Brass & Copper Polish

  1. Shake well before use. This helps prepare the polish for even application.
  2. Apply with a clean, soft cloth. Work the polish over the brass or copper surface until tarnish begins to lift.
  3. Turn the cloth frequently. Avoid reusing a dirty section of cloth, as this can spread residue back over the surface.
  4. Allow the polish to dry. Once dry, wipe away residue using a clean soft cloth.
  5. Buff for shine. Use the included microfibre cloth to help bring out the final finish.
  6. For ornate items, rinse carefully. If polish gets into detailed areas, rinse with a wet sponge and dry thoroughly.
