Hello :) I bought this butter dish at an estate sale. Not knowing what type of metal it was I used Tarn-X, silver cleaner to polish it up. After I used the Tarn-X, it looked like I dug it up out of a fire. The picture above and below are the after Tarn-X. I figured since I already ruined it why not try Brasso metal cleaner. What did I have to lose? Right!
This is what happened when I used the wrong metal cleaner. It even smelled a little funny.
As you can see the Brasso, was working!
She is shining bright and ready to hold butter! It was a $3 easy fix. I still have a lot left in the bottle for some future mistakes :) Before you toss it try another cleaner. Have you done something similar? I'd love to know what you did and how you fixed it. Until next time!
Blessings,
aimee

This is really a cute find! I generally buy rusty metal...AND don't try to fix it, so I can't share any success stories in that area at all!
ReplyDeleteYour dish is perfect!
Aimee,
ReplyDeleteWhat a cool butter dish! I love how it cleaned up!
I need to get some Brasso for a light fixture I have...... I hope the outcome is as good as yours :)
Have a blessed day!
