Samuelc123 Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 I would like some some suggestions on a good acidic metal polish that can remove tarnish and minor corrosion. I heard of semichrome and flitz but I need one that cleans minor corrosion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 What metal might you be wishing to polish? Without important details it's often impossible to give a useful answer. Not having a useful answer doesn't stop a lot of folks from making suggestions though. Making it best to hedge your bets right from the start by asking good questions. How do you differentiate between "tarnish" and "corrosion"? They are synonyms in general use, your question for instance. Frosty The Lucky.

Frosty Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 Copper alloys polish up nicely with commercial products like Brasso, etc. Iron and steel likes phosphoric acid products like Naval Jelly. I don't know of something to remove the corrosion from aluminum without dissolving it. It polishes nicely mechanically though. I don't know about Titanium either, there probably isn't any one agent, Ti has almost as many alloys as I have relatives I don't want to associate with. Frosty The Lucky.

Irondragon Forge ClayWorks Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 Welcome aboard. Have you read this yet? READ THIS FIRST I use MAAS Metal Polishing Creme. I don't know if it's acidic or not but it works on any metal. We can't include links to commercial sites, so just Google it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samuelc123 Posted May 15, 2020 Author Share Posted May 15, 2020 I know I have posted about this topic before but not enough suggestions were given to me. I would like to know if any one has good suggestions on metal polish that's acidic and semi abrasive for removing tarnish and polishing steel and aluminum. If any one knows a good product or industrial product please let me know thankyou Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Sells Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 you have already been given answers and I combined this with your other post, there is no need to spam us all with multiple threads on the same thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
