Polishing a brass plaque can be done with a few simple steps:
Brass naturally tarnishes over time. To keep your brass sign looking its best, we recommend regular polishing with a soft cloth. Avoid using harsh abrasives or excessive force, as this can scratch or damage the brass.
For a light layer of protection, consider applying a small amount of Vaseline or olive oil. This can help slow down the tarnishing process without affecting the sign’s appearance.
Brass polish like Brasso can be effective, use it sparingly. Over-polishing or aggressive buffing can remove the detailing on the plaque, altering the sign’s appearance.
We advise against using varnish on brass plaques. Our experience shows that varnish can weather and become unsightly.
By following these simple steps, you can maintain the quality and beauty of your brass sign for years to come.
