Got something else you could practice on? I have used it on steel quite a bit, with great results. It would take someone smarter than me to tell you for sure.
I do remember someone saying it basically reverses the rusting process.
Since the tarnish is not "rust", I sure dont know.
I have cleaned brass and other items in my case cleaning solution, the stuff I use to clean empty rifle cases prior to reloading. I also have a vibratory case polishing set up that uses crushed walnut hulls along with jewelers rouge.
Birchwood Caseys makes the brass cleaning solution. You mix it with water and let them soak for 3 minutes. You can also brush it lightly with fine brass brushes, or steel wool. This method will clean up brass that has laid outside for a year and turned green. It works great. It is Phosphoric and sulfuric acid. Not sure the proportions of each.
16 oz of the case cleaner sells for $7.95 and it makes two gallons of cleaner, that is reusable many times. I just keep an ice cream container full of it in a drawer at all times.
It was kinda hard to get for awhile, so I bought a lifetime supply. Last I got was from Midway arms, but most big gun shops that cater to reloaders will have it.
