Oh and one more thing, I can’t recommend the product
because I haven’t had a need for it in over 5 years but the best brass
polishing product I ever seen or used was one that you throw water on while
polishing, it was incredible but in ease and results. When you do call you janitorial
guy ask him if he sells it

I agree with John, if you
havent polished brass before you may be better off hiring a metal restoration
company

Lorne,
I would still check
out the janitorial supply and explain what you have, this brass polish still
maybe your answer. If not they may have another solution. I would recommend
taking a picture of the damage and take it along with you to the janitorial
supply. Worse case, you will need to contact a metal refinisher and they
perhaps can assist you as one professional to another.

Thank you John, I failed to mention though that the brass
has a grain to it.

Lorne,
There are several
brass polishes that you can purchase from janitorial supply. They are
usually a paste and will take a lot of rubbing and polishing but this should
solve your problem.
When working around
brass make sure your technician are masking and protecting those areas.
If your using a polishing powder keep in mind that the powders contain acid and
if you get close to the brass you could damage it.

We recently did work in a lobby and, although I don't think
we did it, they are claiming that we tarnished the brass doors and frames. It
is a good account so we are just going to take care of it ourselves. I haven't
done this before and was wondering if someone knows the steps, the products,
and where I could get the products. I'm in a real bind and they obviously want
this done asap so I would appreciate any advise and info I could get. Thanks.

Subject: RE: [sccpartners] Bruised stone
I was wondering when reading
this posting...is there a product (similar to a color enhancer, which I know
wouldn't work too well in this case) that would apply a stain to the
area? If the restorer could use a honing pad to open the pores and then
apply a stain of some sort and then polish? I haven't seen anything like
this but thought it would be nice. I know they make similar products for
wood to help reduce the appearance of scratches and some wear.

you are correct. these are called stun marks and they are

I am in the middle of
restoring a carrera floor. Open spaces but they had several pieces of very
heavy coffee tables and stools that were metal bottoms. I was able to get the
scratches out but the 'bruising' is still there. As far as I know nothing could
be done about that, but I figured I would ask just in case. So does anyone know
of a way to cover up the marks.
