Listers,

My Dad has a 1918 Seagrave pumper fire engine he's restored.  The machine 
has brass all over the place--including a
huge, honeycomb-style radiator and, of course, a brass bell--and he has a 
devil of a time keeping the brass polished.
He's tried all kinds of polish, but the one that works best is called 
Tarnite.  Unfortunately, it appears Tarnite has
been out of production for several years and is pretty much unobtanium 
(there's a guy trying to sell a quarter-full can
on eBay, but that's not worth the trouble).

If anyone knows of a source, or has a stash they'd be willing to part with 
for a fair price please let me know.  There's
some photos of the engine--and a few of our other projects--here:

Thanks,
Bob
