as for cleaning chrome around the home. Cleaning copper: One of the oddest suggestions for cleaning the copper bottoms of saucepans (or any copper that you want bright and shining rather than gathering a patina of verdigris) is to mix tomato sauce (tomato ketchup) and cream of tartar (about � cup sauce to 1 tablespoon cream of tartar). Coat the copper in question with the mixture and stand overnight before rinsing off with soapy water, then with fresh water and drying. Cleaning brass: To get brass shining, make a paste of salt and vinegar. Coat the brass item with this paste, then leave it to sit on the metal for about five minutes. Then rub the paste off with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly. You may need several damp cloths for this cleaning job. Cleaning cast iron Water is the enemy of cast iron,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], so if you wash cast iron to remove gunge (e.g. washing a cast iron skillet or frying pan after use), then dry it very thoroughly as soon as possible. Do not leave it to air dry. After drying,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], �season� the cast iron
