How To Clean Brass & Copper / Antiques & Vintage
This week's film is on the experimental side and is different to anything else I have posted before. It features a few of my own tips on whether or not to clean and polish metalware, particularly brass and copper.

My man... you spent like 10 minutes talking about nothing to show us how to clean brass. Just a tip most people will go on to the next video on the same topic - one that gets to the point.

@ewamanda Thanks for your advice and for supporting the channel with your comment. The video was made two years ago when I was on a massive learning curve ... which I'm actually still on. For info, this video is the 4th most successful video on my channel with over 3,000 views, so not doing too bad for a micro channel. However, I agree 'getting to the point' is very important. Thanks again for your feedback. Regards, Mark.
Thank you so much for your content! So grateful for your insight

Great to get this insight, also I didn’t know you could upload a video to EBay-I’ve never seen a video on any listing before!

Hi Lomie. eBay are beta testing it. It seems to be getting quicker so hopefully it will be a viable option soon. Time will tell. Thanks for your comment. M.

Hi Mark I'm after some advice I've sold an Figurine on ebay but the address is a freight forwarding company based in London. Don't really know what to do. Because it looks like it's going to be relabelled and sent on . Thanks mick

Hi Mick. Personally I would cancel the order as you do not feel safe or comfortable with the third party arrangements. On eBay give the cancellation reason as issue with delivery address. There may also be issues with export/import tax and duties at both ends. I'd steer well clear of this, cancel the sale and relist. You can also block the buyer. M.

Hi Mark, What type of black wax do you use? There's so many types on the market.
