TRA Reo developing dark finger marks, how to clean?

[Papa_Lazarou]

As I mentioned the only drawback I found with the Autosol when used is that the black stuff is a b---h to get of your hands!
That's why I am curious about the Cape Cod cloth - wipe and done I assume.

I use gloves with the cloths, too, but that's me. No issues with black residue that I've found.

Do you Autosol users think that it would clean up a tarnished copper vein? I was late to the clear coat on mine, it lost some of its luster before I read the thread on copper.

Can't say for sure, never tried it. Couldn't hurt to try. If it doesn't work I'm sure you can find plenty of other uses for it.

That is what I have read but I had never heard of Autosol and thought it was worth the asking.
Thanks, Papa

Word on the street is that, sadly, once a CV has tarnished, there's no known way to bring it back.

Info on 2 types. I haven't tried the Aluminum Polish, been using regular.

Regular Autosol metal polish

This incomparably superior, quality metal polish is our most popular product. It has won three international gold medals and is recommended by manufacturers, museums and restoration experts around the world. It safely and easily removes oxidation, corrosion, stains, and rust. It produces a brilliant reflective luster and leaves an invisible protective coating to ensure a long-lasting shine.
The surface should be dry and free from loose dirt before polishing. For a highly polished surface, apply a small amount of AUTOSOL Metal Polish to a soft microfiber cloth and rub vigorously in a circular motion. Do not allow AUTOSOL Metal Polish to dry. Buff to a high luster with a clean cloth.

Autosol Aluminum Polish

Apply a small amount of #1824 Autosol Aluminum Polish onto surface to be cleaned. Polish with a soft cloth in circular motion until black residue appears. Polish off with clean cloth to achieve high lustre finish.
This revolutionary, ammonia-free product, created in the laboratories of Dursol-Fabrik, is perfect for cleaning and polishing uncoated aluminum surfaces leaving an unparalleled sheen without scratching or hazing. Remember to spray on Autosol Aluminum Protective Oil for extreme long lasting protection.

Cape cod cloth did the trick. Thanks guys. A little rubbing and the black came right off.

I recommend gloves if you give them a try.
