I assume "solid" above meant "unplated".

As mentioned above, silver and silver plating are easiest to polish. I guess tooth paste varies in how aggressive it is, but it is often too aggressive to use on silver.
Brass and nickel silver (unplated) take a little more effort, but it at least needs to show it's working after a little bit of time with Brasso or other polish. If it does work, but some of the tarnished/corroded parts remain, maybe they are just deep enough that it needs a lot more time.
Nickel plating is hardest by far and pretty hard to polish by hand.
