Description

Technically speaking, as you continuously massage Brasso into the surface you’re polishing, you will be wiping some of the product off as you go. This is what’s supposed to happen. In addition to this, if you’ve used an appropriate amount of Brasso, and you’ve worked it into a surface and then buffed the surface again, you shouldn’t really have any excess Brasso left behind. So, you won’t need to ‘wipe Brasso off a surface’ per se. Tip: If you’re using liquid Brasso, always pour the liquid from the can onto a clean cloth. Do not hold a cloth over the mouth of the can because this transfers dirt into the can. This then contaminates and weakens the Brasso inside the can. How to clean with wadding Brasso: Although, if you’ve used an appropriate amount of Brasso for the surface you need to clean, and you’ve worked the Brasso into the item and buffed it as well, there shouldn’t be any need to remove the Brasso with water.
