FAQs
What types of metal can Rustins Metal Shine be used on?
It is ideal for cleaning and shining brass, chrome, and most other common metals. Always test on a small, inconspicuous area first if you are unsure about the metal type or its finish.
How do I apply the product?
Apply a small amount with a soft cloth, rubbing evenly over the metal surface. Then, polish off with a clean stockinette, soft cloth, or yellow duster.
Can this be used on antique metals?
It can be used on antique metals, but always proceed with caution. Test on a hidden area first to ensure it doesn't affect any patina or delicate finishes you wish to preserve.
What is the size of the bottle?
The product is supplied in a 125ml bottle.
Does it remove deep scratches?
Rustins Metal Shine is designed for cleaning and shining, not for repairing physical damage like deep scratches. It will remove tarnish and oxidation to restore shine.
How often should I use this product?
The frequency depends on the environment and how quickly the metal tarnishes. Use as needed to maintain the desired shine on your metal items.
Troubleshooting
Metal not shining as expected
Ensure the metal surface was clean and dry before application. The metal might have a protective coating or heavy oxidation that requires a stronger cleaner or pre-treatment. Try applying more product or polishing more vigorously.
Streaking after polishing
You may not have removed all the residue. Use a clean, dry cloth and buff thoroughly to remove any remaining product. Ensure you are using a clean polishing cloth.
Product seems difficult to rub in
The surface might be excessively dirty or oxidized. Clean the surface with mild soap and water first, dry it thoroughly, and then reapply Rustins Metal Shine.
