Re: Nickel Key Tarnish Removal?

Those Leblanc cloths are the best I've found, and I tried a lot of other products. They do lose their mojo after a while though, have to keep buying new ones. I cut each into 4 or 6 smaller pieces to use 1 at a time so they last longer.

Once in a while I use an old (or new) one like a shoe polish strip to gently buff stubborn areas. Just be careful. You will eventually develop a safe repeatable process. Nickel tarnish is stubborn, but I (finally!) defeated mine.

However, we do vary in how our perspiration affects nickel. Some of us have a real issue- my own problem seems not to be all that bad.
