MusicNomad Silver Polish for Silver-Plated Instruments, 4 oz (MN701)

Works great. Needs only a little bit of effort for buffing with a microfiber cloth. It clearly gave a shinny look again to my clarinet. If you are not replacing your pads, make sure you tape them with a paint masking tape. Otherwise your pads will most likely get ruined. I also used same brand bore oil. That product is also nice and all natural oils. I’ll look no further anymore if anything needed I’ll look for MusicNomad products first.

I used it to clean my flute.I haven't even used or seen my flute for about 20 years and it was in bad shape. After using this it made it super shiny again.I didn't have any scratches to remove so I can talk on that

I wanted to clean up my nearly 40 year old Artley, nickel flute for my daughter. It saw much use when I was a little girl but had it overhauled a couple of years back and it played just fine. However, it had a lot of oxidation.I was skeptical about anything being able to restore it to a decent condition.I saw the reviews for this and decided, for the price, I’d try it. Wow— I’m so glad I did!!! I couldn’t believe how much stuff I got off and without much effort.I applied a small amount on an old rag, gently rubbed it onto the flute (staying away from pads) and let it sit a couple of minutes until it hazed.Buffed it off with an old eyeglass cloth and WAH-LA!!! I wish I had before and after of the flute, but this is a picture of the cloth.

Good on oxidated silver and instruments like flutes or handbells, and metal keys. However, on the handbells it could not remove a particular dark spot. It may not be the fault of the product. It just may be that the handbell was not full copper. Otherwise I’d give it a 5.

I purchased 2 used trumpets a couple months ago and upon inspecting them, they both needed some real TLC. It was clear that both instruments were put away years and years ago as the valves were stiff, most of the slides weren't moving, and the tarnish was a bit overwhelming to the point that i almost didn't buy them.I decided to pull the trigger and see if I could work my magic to bring these guys back to life, and boy did they! It took a lot of time and elbow grease, but one thing that made the clean up a little easier was this Music Nomad Silver Polish. It doesn't take much on the rag, and it produced some amazing results. I can only imagine a more well cared for instrument would be even easier, but this stuff really worked much quicker than I anticipated. Overall I think I spent 3 hours cleaning both instruments, but the polishing was definitely the easiest part of that.I attached a couple images to show before and afters. They need another round of polishing, but you can see an unequivocal difference after only one round of quick polishing. I used a microfiber towel that I didn't mind staining to apply the polish, working in small quick circles one section of the instrument at a time. Once applied I gave it a few seconds to "dry" a bit, and then I used a second microfiber towel to clean off the residue. Finally, my 3rd and final step was to use a Bach Silver Polish Cloth to go over the instrument one more time to rid of any leftover residue and give it that finalized shine. Honestly, these came out so good that I almost didn't want to touch them for awhile so I didn't get fingerprints all over my work!Definitely recommend this product for anyone with a silver instrument. The bottle size was a little worrisome, but after cleaning 2 trumpets I can see that this bottle is going to last awhile. Especially if your instrument is already in good shape, just a little of this stuff will bring out the shine and vibrance that one expects playing a silver instrument.

very useful solution for polishing anything brass

I bought this polish to use on a silver French Horn that had years of tarnish. Doesn’t require applying a lot to get an instrument clean. Apply to a soft cloth then use the cloth on the instrument to clean, then wipe off residue. The French Horn looked like new.

It looks like I just took my mellophone to the shop for a professional cleaning! I wanted to get my mellophone looking nice for this upcoming season, this bottle alone was enough for me and the rest of the section! For sure worth the money rather than taking it into the shop, it removed tarnish from about 6 years ago along with hiding a lot of the scratches and other scuffs.
