I have some from a new Boston that were discolored after an HVAC pipe leaked into the piano, down the (mostly) bass strings, and into the agraffes. I used Hagerty Heavy-Duty copper brass & metal polish, which initial tests showed to work a little better than Brasso. The results are not acceptable--the discoloration is still there, and the brass did not get that high shine I've seen when polishing capstans. I'll have to re-do these, and would like to do so only once. Any help appreciated.
