How do I get scratches out of brass?

Answer by  Euripides (174)

Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc, which makes it a semi-soft metal. This means that light scratches (mo deeper than 1-2 mm. ) can often be buffed out using a buffer and mild abrasive. Deeper scratches can be minimized but never completely removed without harming the surrounding metal.

Brass is soft, so it scratches easily. It is often laquered, and the scratch may be in the finish- use a little acetone (nail polish remover) which will soften the finish and buff like crazy. If not finished, use a good brass cleaner, and a buffing cloth, and elbow grease.
