Product Information

When you’re done using your Brasso you need to store it away in a safe place, that is out of the reach of children and pets. Church, Roy A.; Andrew Godley (2003). The Emergence of Modern Marketing. Routledge. p.30. ISBN 0-7146-5390-X. You’ve got to put some elbow grease into the cleaning exercise – it’s not just going to work on its own.

Below you’ll find steps on how to use Brasso in both liquid and wadding form. Skip to the section that applies to the Brasso you’ve bought. General tips to think about before you start using Brasso: Brasso is a metal polish designed to remove tarnish from brass, copper, chrome and stainless steel. It is available either directly as a liquid or as an impregnated wadding pad. Regularly wipe/buff the already treated surface with a new clean cloth to see how you’re polishing exercise is going. Perform a small patch test to make sure the Brasso doesn’t mark or stain the surface you’re about to polish.The label of Australian Brasso lists "Liquid Hydrocarbons 630g/L; Ammonia 5g/L", whereas the material safety data sheet for Brasso in North America lists: isopropyl alcohol 3–5%, ammonia 5–10%, silica powder 15–20% and oxalic acid 0–3% as the ingredients. [4] However, the Australian version contains kaolin instead of silica for abrasives. [5] The online data sheet for Brasso wadding in the UK lists the ingredients as C8–10 Alkane/Cycloalkane/Aromatic Hydrocarbons, Quartz, C14–18 and C16–18 unsaturated Fatty acids, Kaolinite, Aqua, Ammonium Hydroxide and Iron Hydroxide. Brasso liquid lists a slightly different mix; C8–10 Alkane/Cycloalkane/Aromatic Hydrocarbons, Quartz, Kaolin, C12–20 Saturated and Unsaturated Monobasic Fatty Acids, Aqua and Ammonium Hydroxide. Also available are ingredients in a discontinued recipe for Brasso. Wadding: C8–10 Alkane/Cycloalkane/Aromatic Hydrocarbons, Quartz, Ammonium Tallate and Colorant. Liquid: C8–10 Alkane/Cycloalkane/Aromatic Hydrocarbons, Quartz, Kaolin and Ammonium Tallate. [6] In 2010, Brasso brought out a new product, Brasso Gadgetcare. Gadgetcare is a versatile, non-abrasive gel that can be used on everything from LCD TV screens, laptop screens, computers, smart phones, and PDAs. The plastic bottle is 50ml and is sold with a microfibre cloth. Keep an eye out for a blue and white striped pot that has a big red label on the front, with the name ‘Brasso’ on it. If you buy a liquid can of Brasso, you need to pour a small amount of the can’s contents onto a clean cloth to use the solution.

Brasso originated in the UK in 1905. Sold in most hardware and home improvement stores, it is used to clean silver, brass and bronze. Once known for its familiar metal can, Brasso now comes in a plastic container. The formula now conforms with the safety regulations in most countries, but is essentially the same formula Grandma used. Follow the directions precisely and your silver, or almost any smooth surface, will gleam. Step One When buying partner items like this one, your contract of sale will be with our Range Plus Partner instead of us. Gently rub a piece of Brasso wadding onto the surface you want to clean to perform a small patch test – make sure the Brasso doesn’t mark or stain the surface you’re about to polish. Use small amounts of Brasso at a time, and add more product as you go– If you use too much Brasso you run the risk of it dripping everywhere as you use it, especially the liquid form, this is wasteful.

Returning your item

For the historical county of the Kingdom of Hungary, see Brassó (county). For the county seat thereof, see Braşov. You should remove Brasso from small nooks before it dries– Use a small, slim tool that’s wrapped in a cloth to tease the excess Brasso from crevices. Leaving the Brasso to dry will just make it harder to remove, and you might not end up with the sleek finish you were after if there’s Brasso residue all over the place.

Tip: If you’re using liquid Brasso, always pour the liquid from the can onto a clean cloth. Do not hold a cloth over the mouth of the can because this transfers dirt into the can. This then contaminates and weakens the Brasso inside the can. How to clean with wadding Brasso: Although, if you’ve used an appropriate amount of Brasso for the surface you need to clean, and you’ve worked the Brasso into the item and buffed it as well, there shouldn’t be any need to remove the Brasso with water. Regularly wipe/buff the already treated areas with an additional clean cloth to see how you’re polishing exercise is going. Note: You’ll likely have to use more Brasso for tougher, dirtier spots! And if your Brasso cleaning cloth goes dry, add more liquid Brasso to it or use a new piece of wadding. Benefits of using BrassoConvenient and uncomplicated online shopping in no time at all!
