Quote:Thanks Danno. My copy of Lewis says pretty much the same. What's interesting is there is no mention of 'burnish'.
perhaps burnish is confused with bringing out a shine.....is vinegar not good for shining brasswork? I recall we used ketchup to shine the ships bell years ago, due to its acidic content..?
