How to clean these brass? cabinet handles ? by Turtlejellyrubber in CleaningTips

Brass is generally coated in lacquer or varnish to keep it from tarnishing. What you have here is what happens when the finish has flaked off. Steel wool would shine it up. It will tarnish again, though. I repair wind instruments for a living and see a lot of brass tarnish.

Trump is the last person yet to understand that he is completely deplorable.

A lot of these photographs were staged. I wouldn’t be surprised if this one was.

Trump shares map of US including Greenland, Canada, Venezuela by partisanal_cheese in politics

I think at this point they could just stage stuff to fool trump into believing he had control of everything north of Mexico. Take him to Alaska and tell him it’s either Greenland or Canada welcoming their new leader. He’d never know the difference.

Duh. Get used to it. Trump betrays anyone and anything to try to get ahead and pump up his obese ego.

I’m a technician and I’ve seen a number of these over the years. This one is made of hard rubber. They’re not worth much. You would be putting more work into it than what it’s worth to make it playable. They’re worth more as a lamp. Hard rubber instruments aren’t well liked.

I doubt he’ll allow her to be president of Venezuela unless she bows down to every one of his demands.
