Copper shinning

Post by holliday »

Just wondering the methods or products you all use to shine your copper and keep it looking good.

For the outside only(you shouldn't be cleaning the inside to shiney except on your initial cleaning runs) use foreshots to clean it up good then apply clear high temp lacquer. Just ensure you don't get any on any sealing surfaces or on the inside.
