[TheForge] how to remove green gunk???

[Bruce Freeman]

That's good to know.

Another product is called barkeepers friend or barkeepers helper or something like that.  It comes in a round container like cleanser, but it has no abrasive.  It contains oxalic acid, which is poisonous to eat, but good for removing rust stains.  It removes rust stains because it gloms onto metals, and would probably glom onto the oxidized copper (green) as well as it does iron rust.  It can be found in some supermarkets.

DAve:  Try "Bon Ami" non-abrasive cleanser and a stiff, small brush.  The
Bon Ami abrasive is non-scratching cornstarch vs. the usual mica in regular
chlorinated cleansers.

Question:
How would one remove green gunk from brass or bronze bathroom fixtures
on a marble counter top.? Of course I don't want to stain the marble
any more than it already is. Any information will be greatly
appreciated.
thanks
