Brasso: The Original Multi-Purpose Metal Polish, Liquid Formulas, and Wadding

This polish has been cleaning and shining brass, copper, chrome, and stainless steel since 1905. It removes tarnish and leaves a protective coating that helps prevent future oxidation.

Benefits

Brasso cuts through tarnish, oxidation, and grime on multiple metal surfaces without harsh scrubbing. The formula leaves behind a thin protective layer that slows down future tarnishing, so metals stay brighter between cleanings.

Works on Multiple Metals

One product cleans brass, copper, chrome, stainless steel, pewter, and bronze, so you don’t need separate polishes for different surfaces around your home.

Fast-Acting Formula

The solution breaks down tarnish quickly with minimal rubbing. Most items only need a few minutes of application and buffing to restore their shine.

Long-Lasting Protection

After polishing, a protective film stays on the metal surface to slow down oxidation and tarnishing, keeping items looking clean longer between treatments.

About brand

Brasso launched in 1905 in the United Kingdom and quickly became a household name for metal care. For over a century, the brand has been trusted by homeowners, collectors, and professionals to restore shine to brass, copper, chrome, and other metals.

The formula was originally developed to meet the high standards of military brass polishing, where appearance and maintenance mattered. That same reliable formula is still used today, though the product line has expanded to include different formats like liquids, wadding, and sprays to suit various cleaning needs.

Brasso is now manufactured by Reckitt Benckiser, a global consumer goods company, and is sold in hardware stores, supermarkets, and online retailers across North America and beyond. The brand has maintained its reputation by sticking to a straightforward promise: effective tarnish removal and lasting protection for metal surfaces.

Whether you’re restoring antique fixtures, maintaining musical instruments, or keeping kitchen hardware looking fresh, Brasso has been the go-to choice for generations who want their metals to shine without complicated processes or harsh chemicals.

What peoples say

Customers praise how quickly it removes years of tarnish from brass and copper, with many saying it works better than newer products they’ve tried. Some mention the strong ammonia smell during application, but most agree the results are worth it and appreciate that the shine lasts for weeks.

Stephanie Barnes

Customer

I used Brasso on my grandmother’s tarnished brass candlesticks, and within minutes the black oxidation just wiped away to reveal beautiful golden metal underneath. The smell is strong but the results are amazing, and they’ve stayed shiny for months now.

Anthony Russo

Customer

I restore old motorcycles as a hobby, and Brasso is what I reach for when I need to bring chrome parts back to life. It cuts through years of oxidation without scratching, and the engines look showroom-ready after a good polish.

Katherine Walsh

Customer

My antique copper pots looked awful after sitting in storage for years, covered in green and brown spots. I wasn’t sure anything could bring them back, but Brasso had them gleaming in about twenty minutes with way less scrubbing than I expected.

Frequently Asked Questions

What metals can I use Brasso on?

Brasso works on brass, copper, chrome, stainless steel, pewter, bronze, and aluminum. Avoid using it on lacquered surfaces, as it may damage the protective coating.

How do I use Brasso?

Shake the bottle well, apply a small amount to a soft cloth, and rub it onto the metal surface in circular motions. Let it dry to a haze, then buff with a clean cloth until shiny. For wadding, simply rub the pre-soaked pad directly on the metal.

Is Brasso safe to use indoors?

Yes, but make sure the area is well-ventilated because the formula contains ammonia, which has a strong odor. Open windows or use a fan while working.

How often should I polish my metals?

It depends on the item and environment. Items exposed to air and moisture tarnish faster. Most household brass and copper need polishing every few months, but the protective film Brasso leaves behind helps extend time between cleanings.

Can I use Brasso on antiques?

Yes, but test it on a small hidden area first. Some antique collectors prefer to keep original patina, so consider whether you want to remove all tarnish or preserve the aged look.

Will Brasso remove scratches?

Brasso removes tarnish and oxidation but won’t eliminate deep scratches. It may make light surface scratches less noticeable by polishing the surrounding area.
