Hi, alot of antique dealer and appraisers would have a fit if people cleaned up brass and cooper items, only because it decress the value, you can have a professional do it at a cost!. There is a mild remindy though, combine equal parts of flour,salt and vinegar, mix into a past. Spread the past onto the metal, let it dry, and buff it off w/ a clean dry cloth.
