[Harp-L] How to remove reed plate corrosion



I use Bar Keepers Friend, and a toothbrush.  I tried Jason's method, but I think the Bar Keepers Friend works better and faster.  If also use it on the cover plates, which come out looking like new.  I make it a point to wash the parts in soap of some kind afterwards, also using the toothbrush.  Also, if you are doing a bunch of them, you might want to wear some gloves, as it has some acid in it, and will make your hands sting a bit after a while.

The purple Kaboom that I tried explicitly says not to use it on Brass.  I do not know why.
