    This is an old brass cup with serious rust. I tried repairing and polishing it, and the result made me very satisfied.

    I just take it to the buffing wheel on my bench grinder. Use the solid stick compound and polish. Comes out like a mirror finish.

    The baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) just neutralizes the acid. The bubbles (regardless of their cinematic effect) do absolutely nothing to remove the oxide. Those bubbles are just CO2 that is produced when the baking soda neutralizes the acid.

    Looks like a tea or sake cup, it’s so small. The lip at the top makes me think it used to have a lid. Very cool restoration!

    I do metal restoration you really don't have to do all these steps....I would use Acetone first to clean it to break down all that grease and extra build up, mix the oxalic Acid with liquid soap scrub it then polish it

      Start with never dull then finish with mothers chrome polish. Soft metals are easy.

      ​@@davidstrickler6570 I like morhers mag polish before chrome polish. Really loosens up the residual in the metal. I buff with finger pads or cloth, wipe out then buff with a fresh light coating with the dremel and buff wheel.

    This is the finish I'd like to restore my kitchen cabinet doorknobs back to, but there's no way I can go through all these steps for each doorknob/door pull. I have Brasso, and I have barkeeper's friend (which has oxalic acid). I can clean them with that. Can I skip the other steps and just get the diamond paste 20,000 and use the polishing tool? If so, I need to know what the final polishing tool was that you used.

    • @noimagination99
      @noimagination99 5 місяців тому +1

      I'd say just try it and see what works. Brass is easy to clean and polish. 20000 diamond grit is not needed. There are much cheaper, simpler, readily available polishes that are great for brass (because it is soft). Red Rouge should work.

      I don't know about stupid, but I do prefer the old look just for nostalgia sake. Everyone is different and will have preferences.
      My idea would be to polish the inside and lip so it can contain a beverage, but leave the outside's patina.
