I want to bring my bronze Norman Pin back to it's original state (after 36 years!). Are there any polishes/solutions out there to help with this? Then again, is it really necessary or worth it to polish it since I understand bronze will oxidize again very quickly?

Thanks

I cleaned mine with a fine wire brush wheel attached to a bench grinder. May not be the best method out there, but it worked Grin

Brasso will make it look like gold for a while, sooner or later most give up.
