Wenol Universal Metal Polish is great for gold, silver, brass (and NICKEL!), and works wonders on nickel keys that you just don't have time to go buff. Quickly removes oxidation, water spots, and tarnish. Our friends at Yamaha first told us about Wenol. They use it extensively on the line, even on lacquered surfaces.
