How to Clean Copper
1. Raw (Uncoated) Copper
Copper naturally tarnishes over time.
Routine Cleaning:- Wash with warm soapy water using a soft cloth or sponge.
- Rinse thoroughly and dry immediately to prevent spots.

- Boiling Vinegar & Salt Solution: Submerge heavily tarnished items, rinse, dry.
- Optional: Apply a light coat of mineral or olive oil to slow tarnish.
2. Lacquer-Coated Copper
Lacquer protects copper from tarnishing; cleaning must preserve it.
Cleaning:- Use warm soapy water and a soft cloth.
- Rinse and dry immediately.
- Acidic pastes, salt scrubs, steel wool, or abrasive cleaners that can remove lacquer.
- Carefully remove lacquer with acetone/lacquer thinner, clean copper as raw, then consider re-lacquering.
Quick Tips
- Always test cleaning on a small area first.
- For cookware, ensure cleaning is food-safe.
