When your copper metal starts to get a dull look, here's a simple way to shine it up.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

  • lemon juice
  • white vineger
  • small bowl
  • dry towel

Step1
First is to have your copper ready by lightly dust of some of the dust ang grime on it before getting ready to shine.
Step2
Next is to put in fresh squeezed lemon juice from a lemon fruit, then add a small amount (like a teaspoon) of white vineger in a small bowl. Stir to mix well.
Step3
When you mixed your lemon juice and vineger, have a cloth towel ready and dipped it into the mix, and then dampen the cloth onto the copper, and go over the copper piece like you are cleaning it. Give it a good five minutes to have that shining glow.

Tips & Warnings

  • If fresh lemon isn't available, you can use lemon juice already squeezed from the store.
