Copper Cleaner

Monday, July 12th, 2010

I bought this vintage copper tray for my friend Mary’s birthday. It has a pegasus on it. I suppose it can’t be ‘too’ vintage with a flying horse on it, but it sure looks old. (Mary collects Pegasi - surely that’s the word for l=plural pegasuses isn’t it??? ) LOL

Anyhow.

Before I could give it to her - I knew I needed to shine it up some. The grocery store still hasn’t gotten rebuilt from the tornado and I didn’t remember to pick any up when I was in town.

I can’t just run to the city for one little thing….

So I did the next best thing.

I started on the back and I dumped Heinz ketchup all over it and spread it out some and let it sit.

WORKS like a charm!

I think the acid in the ketchup gets rid of the dullness.
