Could somebody give me some tips on how to polish a Seth Thomas brass locomotive clock case. Larry | ||
|
Brasso will help but Mike H did some great restoration on those perhaps he will chirp in. | ||||

Hi Larry, There are a lot of things you could use, but my vote goes to Maas polishing crème. Good Luck, Tim | |||
|
Larry, Maas is great but a bit on the expensive side. I use Blue Magic Metal Polish Cream, you should be able to find it at an automotive store and it works great. Mike | ||||

I've used Mother's Mag and Aluminum polish for years.It's non abrasive and can be used to polish just about any thing.Bikers use it on their Harleys,I use it on pocket watch cases,gold , nickel and silver.Available in most Auto parts stores.Regards.Norm | ||||

If the lacquer is off and you are down to solid brass then any good polish works. Taking lacquer off requires work as well as method. I've used Brasso and Never Dull. | |||
