How to polish a large sheet of brass?

[Bailey Guns]

OK...I found a cheap and easy miracle. 1 part vinegar, 1 part salt and enough flour to make a spreadable paste. Holy crap. I brushed it and before I finished a brush stroke you could see the tarnish disappear. Works on copper and brass and probably other metals. I rubbed it in with a sponge and rinsed it with a garden hose. Took all of 5 minutes. Then spent about 20 minutes with some Brasso and got a good shine. Not a mirror, but nice and clean and shiny.

Got the recipe off some hippy website. I guess they are good for something.

Probably taking pictures of their work is one of them.

That's awesome. I'm going to add that recipe to my Household notebook. Glad to hear you found a painless and quick solution!
