    I'm looking for a metal polisher to clean the metal off my cross chain. It seems a bit stained with dust or something.

    Any recommended brands of cleaners to get? Should I get a metal polisher? :doh:

    Please help. Thanks. :beer:

    I use Mr. Brasso! :thumb:

    Works very well, but has a very strong smell.

    Yup, Brasso is the best for the job (that I know of).

    Wah. This Mr Brasso seriously that good eh?

    Will definitely give it a try. Can get it easily at any departmental store or DIY store in Malaysia?

    you should be able to find brasso anywhere in diy and hardware shops. for me I use the Amway one... but mostly meant for pots and pans cos it's safe for those....

    Yup, it's really common. :thumb:

    No real need to get the biggest tube. Even the small tube lasts a long time.

    Thanks guys. Will try to look for it. :D

    Now I'm just afraid that the metal has stained (or rusted or oxidized? not sure how to describe it) so bad, that I may need to repaint or do something else with it. :(

    Well, clean it up with Mr. Brasso first. Then you can repaint it. :mrgreen:

    You could use some toothpaste & toothbrush. Brush briskly like brushing your teeth and finally washing it all off in obvious manner.
