Awesome product!

2007-10-22
This item is an old standby product that I keep in my cupboard all the time. It cleans and polishes silver, jewelry, anything. It does not require a great deal of rubbing, just enough to get it off and buff to a shine. If you put too much on, that will take some effort. You use it "sparingly". I use the plate system to clean my silver, then, I polish and buff with Simichrome. It definitey slows down the tarnishing. Just go online and find all the wonderful uses and reviews for this product. It is one no kitchen should be without.

Simichrome Metal Polish (Restorers)

I bought this item because I have a significant amount of brass hardware to clean in my house. The product works well, but requires a great deal of rubbing to get the brass to shine. Not a product for those who are looking for somethin to chemically "peel" the tarnish away. It will clean. But you need tons and tons of "elbow grease" to accomplish the task.

Best Of Its Kind

I agree that this is a fine polish.I use Simichrome on all type of metals (including heavy silver plate) and also to restore most hard plastics. It will do a very nice job of polishing the plastic and metal surfaces of iPods, for example, with just about no chance of scratching. In the universe of polishes, it is in fact very mildly abrasive. (An example of a very abrasive metal polish would be Brasso.) Fine metal works and makers of metal housewares private label Simichrome as their own recommended polish. An excellent product with a wide range of uses.

Simichrome is the Beest

Years ago, when we lived in Philadelphia, we had a large brass door knocker. Each weekend, I'd go out with a can of Brasso and try to polish the brass. It was tough work. A medical student saw my plight and let me borrow his tube os Simichrome. I've never used another polish since. My Army brass never looked so good!

Excellent for cleaning and finishing polished wood

2008-04-21
In addition to using Simichrome on metals (would advise, incidentally, against using it on silver plate or regularly on sterling, unless they are very heavily tarnished, since it is very abrasive) I use it to clean and restore the finish on antique, French polished furniture. It does a superb job of removing wax build up and will bring or restore a sound shellac finish to a mirror finish. Also works on polyurathane (sp?) finishes. Do not use on wood finishes if the underlying wood is exposed.

Simply the Best Metal Polish

2008-03-11
This is by far the best metal polish I have ever used! I make jewelry and I use Silver solder in the process. I use the Simichrome polish to bring my silver items up to a fantastic shine! I reccomend it to all of my customers as a way to keep their items looking like new. It is not the easiest polish to find but it is worth the hunt when you do find it. I found it easier to order from Amazon.com than to run all over town trying to find it.

Simichrome Metal Polish review

I had used this product before, and found it to be all that it was described to be for polishing brass, gold, or any other type of metal. I was pleased with the product and the service involved in the purchase and delivery.
