Flitz Instant Brass and Copper Tarnish Remover - 16oz Bottle of USA-Made Organic Rust Remover Spray (No-Rub) - Removes Stains & Oxidation from Glass & Aluminum - Brass Cleaners That Work (1 Pack)

I don’t want to know what’s in this stuff but it’s incredible. It’s almost instantaneous, like magic. I followed directions after applying the spray, making sure to wipe things down with water to neutralize the spray using a very damp microcloth followed by drying with another cloth. My BRASS pieces, lamps and table bases, look like new. It’s been a week and shine/color are still perfect. As for cleaning COPPER (cooking pots and lids) it does a great job and again is almost instantaneous but I did need to use my Barkeepers Friend Pot and Pans cleanser to really remove spots. Yet, the cleaning time was drastically reduced. It’s the greatest product for cleaning brass/copper since sliced bread. Something important to note: MAKE SURE YOU ARE IN A VENTILATED AREA, either outside or by an open window/door, and WEAR GLOVES. Otherwise, this stuff is awesome!

This was AMAZING!! A product that actually does what it advertises. I used a cloth, brillo pad, and a toothbrush to detail this light. The light has been in my family for over 50 years and was never cleaned before it was given to me. Buildup came dripping off immediately. Wear gloves. Makes hands slick like bleach does.

It works well for tarnish removal. REALLY well, BUT, it’s easy to use on small items that you can wash and polish after. Not so good on large items, it leaves a milky, sticky residue that makes my large copper bowl and brass mongul look dull, even after washing and polishing it as well as I could. Now I kinda hope the tarnish comes back soon as I don’t like the new look.

I’m a drummer with a substantial vintage cymbal collection. Cymbals are made from an alloy consisting of mainly brass with some copper and other metals. I’ve been trying to clean some of the worst looking ones lately without much luck at all. I decided to do a little “cymbal cleaner shoot out” to determine which, if any, of the brass tarnish removers worked well. I was especially interested in finding a product that was non-abrasive and could clean my cymbals up nicely without hours of hard “elbow grease” style rubbing and polishing. So I bought 5 different brass tarnish remover/cleaners and tried them all. 3 of them (Brasso, Hope’s, and “Lizard Spit, which is marketed specifically as a cymbal polish) appeared to be essentially identical. They looked the same, and were all equally ineffective …without a tremendous amount of effort. Even with a lot of effort, the results weren’t great. I also tried Tarn-X, which was better. But it didn’t restore the original look of the cymbal. I got the impression that on a more ideal matching metal, the Tarn-X would work very well. Maybe pure copper or silver? The last product to arrive on my doorstep was Flitz Brass and Copper Tarnish remover. I had all but given up on finding something that worked by this point. But this morning I read the directions and tried Flitz on the other side of the same cymbal that I had been testing all the other products on. You just spray it on and let it sit for about a minute, and then rinse it off. BOOM! I couldn’t believe it! In 1 minute, with no rubbing at all, it took off about 50 years worth of tarnish and made the cymbal look like new again! It works beautifully! I have a feeling that all of these polishes and tarnish removing products probably work very well on certain types of metal and for removing certain types of grime. But for tarnish on cymbals (mostly brass), nothing I have tried even comes close to Flitz. I can’t imagine that anything else could possibly work better.

This product does not work as advertised!!! Below is the promise - INSTANT CLEANING POWER - Our fast-acting brass and copper cleaner is engineered to quickly cut through heavy tarnish, oxidation, rust, corrosion, calcium deposits, water spots, and stains. With this aluminum oxidation remover, you can easily remove surface stains within just 30 seconds of application. It does not work fast! It does not work at all! I even used a brass brush with this product and to oxidation on the copper statue was barely touched. And the best (worst) part is that it cannot be returned1 All they offer is online customer service. Did this help? NO!! Save your money and try a different product!

Flitz was rate #3 in ratings. Brasso was rated #9. I am going back to Brasso. A little firm rubbing with Brasso seems to produce a cleaner result. Price difference was not worth it.

I can only wish I had taken before and after pictures of the transformation that just took place when I used this product on a heavily tarnished copper bowl so I could truly do justice to how amazing it is. I didn't expect it to work, so didn't expect to be writing a review, but I am so astounded by how well it worked, that I am hoping the end result will be enough to convince you. I hate cleaning and polishing metal products. In fact, this bowl was so tarnished, and my previous attempts to clean it have gone so poorly, that I was seriously considering just throwing it out. I am having my kitchen redone and I didn't want something so hideous in the new kitchen, but in a last ditch effort to save it, I ordered this product. I read mixed reviews and mention of the smell being overpowering, so I was not too enthusiastic about it, but I just sprayed it on and the bowl instantly became clean. No scrubbing, no overpowering smell, just clean. So easy, so fast, within a minute, the bowl was saved. There are a couple areas with pitting that didn't come clean, but overall, it was just stunning results. Definitely recommend this product.

Unbelievable! This stuff really works. Even on very tarnished brass. I took my folks vintage floor lamps from Thailand outside and wiped them down fairly quickly. Idk HOW it works because there’s no black residue like there is when you use a polish. That said, I did polish them after using this product to get the true brilliance I wanted but it saves a lot of elbow grease before hand! BTW Flitz polish is the BEST! The second picture has one of the 2 lamps on the far right before using the spray. The 2 small lamps I only used the Flitz polish on because they require less energy than the big lamps.

Cleans properly but Shine lasts for 2-3 days only. Life of cleaning with regular n cheap home made products is much more than this costly chemical

The product was as described, however after spraying the item sprayed had to be helped along with a hard bristol brush. Overall, great product which can be used with a minimal of fuss. Fantastic delivery time. Good job.

I have used it many times with great results. Non toxic and long lasting shine. Easy to follow instructions

Fantastic brass cleaner easily, will be buying another one. Never has our candlesticks and fire irons looked this good.

Muy satisfecho con el resultado del producto. Después de la aplicación del producto sobre el latón, se espera de 2 a 5 minutos y se pasa por un chorro de agua, yo lo hice dejando a bajo un recipiente y después sumergí nuevamente el latón agitando el recipiente. El latón sale como teñido de rojo como si el producto no hubiera hecho su trabajo. Finalmente lo talle enérgicamente con un trapo de micro fibra y el latón recupero su brillo original con algunas pequeñas imperfecciones. Muestro en las fotos el estado original y después de haber pulido con el trapo el acabado brillante muy satisfactorio
