1980's tarnish remover in orange can???

[Stick-man]

I remember a tarnish remover that was a saturated cotton in an orange can. You would pull some off the roll, and it worked very well. The can was about 2 1/2 - 3 inches in diameter and about 4 inches high. I think they had another type in a blue can. I just can't remember the name. Thanks

I remember these growing up

Anyone know what the magic was?

Pretty sure we polished the copper bottom pots with it, and certainly remember the smell...

The cleaner was in the "cloth". Rub on tarnish & then buff off.

Yes, but what WAS the chemical cleaner?

mostly petroleum Distillates,


Possibly, I'm wrong. Both cans say non toxic, but they also say combustible! No ingredients listed.
It smells like chrome cleaner or Brasso.

 

[PCustoms]

Brasso.

Remember that can now too

This looks kinda like it, but I seem to remember an orange can and maybe a blue can. The orange I thought was all orange. But this might be it. It's been many decades. LOL

I used to use that wadding type stuff. I now use Blue Magic cream polish. I might have to get some neverdull and do a side by side comparison test. I have an old can of Brasso I got free from a guy who was moving and didn’t want to take half full cans and bottles and jars of household chemicals. (People who are moving are a great source of useable stuff. I got a nice 3 burner Weber grill with stainless steel grates plus 3 propane tanks for $100)

NevR-dull now comes in a "chrome" can and has for many years. Before that it was in blue can and i believe originally ab orange can.
I also use Cape Cod polishing cloths. Similar but in a cloth rather than the cotton wadding.

The name is not what I thought, but man, that looks exactly like the can I remember. This has to be it. Thank you. I believe they had another blue can for silver I believe???
