<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mansons2005, post: 272087, member: 121&quot;]I prefer the term &quot;maintenance&quot; to &quot;restore&quot;.............when it was in someone&#039;s home/possession, they kept it clean and presentable. Age takes its toll no matter what you do on a regular basis, so once in a while you have to get down on your hands and knees and scrub. </p><p><br /></p><p>As I have stated on more that one occasion (probably enough times to make some ill), why would you leave brass candlesticks and copper pots dull and covered with &quot;patina&quot; (tarnish) when the housewife who owned them originally would have died of shame to have anyone see her possessions in that condition? Patina is wear, not tarnish and dirt.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
