Polish better and polish less. This paste polish is the favorite in our shop for polishing metal bagpipe mounts, whether nickel, stainless steel, silver or something else. The paste is easy to apply and stays where you want it; plus, you don't need to use much. It's ready for removal quickly and shouldn't be allowed to dry. Even quite tarnished mounts are made shiny, and the paste also works to protect against future tarnish. You can remove the polish with a dry cloth or with the Flitz Microfiber Polishing Cloth. Recommended by music stores for many instruments.
