I used one of those on old, filthy treadle irons, years ago. With that brush (used very lightly) I found the lovely gold paint on the Singer decals on the irons. When I'd started cleaning them, they were just dull grey irons, not even black anymore. Those irons shine now.

I wish you had a before picture so I would know if it was as bad as mine! Did you use baking soda or something with the brush?
ReplyDeleteI absolutely cannot use a brass brush. Something about it makes my back teeth hurt...kind of like nails on a blackboard!
