Does it or does it not come with a pamphlet explaining which compound works best on which metal?

I dont remember mine coming with any info but you can search online and get an idea.

Mine did not come with anything saying which compound was best for which metal.

I have used this on many things and it works very well. I have not used it on Metal.

This did not come with a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS), which would include a breakdown of chemical contents, large and small. If I had to guess, I might say distilled water. It may actually be higher than a 99% concentration, but the manufacturer is guaranteeing 99%. Often in the refinement process, price depends on purity. These didn't cost much. This is NOT laboratory grade. I use iso in an electro-mechanical service operation. It has an advantage over ethyl alcohol, as in sold in the paint section at Home Depot, because there are no additives to make it poisonous.

No, it's their Plastic Weld product....if you need to repair metal, use the normal JB weld...Key is to prep the heck out of the surface you are going to adhere the JB weld to. Good Luck!

Do you know what kind of metal it is? This is supposed to work on brass, copper, bronze, and some nickle pieces. Mostly I have used it on silver plated pieces where the base metal (brass) is showing through. It seems VERY hit or miss, in some places it improves the look impressively in others it will not seem to take.

The container says it is for all metals. Still need a lot of elbow grease though.

When I got mine, it only came with a simple one-sheet diagram, showing the knife and what the different parts of it are. As far as I know, there is no further instruction manual for it.

I honestly don't know. I have never read the ingredients on any of the metal polishers. All I know when I discovered this polish several years ago, it exceeded the other polish crèmes in outcome. Much faster and requires less elbow grease, it is not harsh. The polish seems to last longer after using.

Check this out, there is no better guide. Go to page 7 if you are in a hurry, but you could benefit from reading it all. Here: http://www.arbortechusa.com/upload/pages/pchsupport/how-to-sharpen-a-power-chisel.pdf BUT, I've heard that different polish/honing compound makers use different colors. I've heard this only from long time users (older men) who may be remembering a time before standardization OR be using a small scale/specialist compound makers products.

Mine came with a manual. But you might not get one, I'm not %100 on that though.

This comes with stock compound. But if you have good quality compound around such as artic silver or something like it, it's best if you remove the stock compound and apply your own, that will improve your temps a bit.

I checked the Maas website and found no information about the difference, seems that for cleaning metals there is a crème and a liquid - personal preference as far as I could tell.

I don't see the ingredients listed on my bottle of Copperbrill. I have a decent amount of experience with copper cleaners and I have found that this product works better than every other product I have used, without question. I use Barkeepers Friend cleaner for gritty jobs as it has some scrubbing power and it costs a lot less than Copperbrill, but it cannot make a shine like Copperbrill. Also, somehow the Copperbrill is not hard on the hands. It is a very good product, at a cost, however. For me the cost is worth it for the copper pots. It must be like some kind of magic so they can charge a premium, but it works. I don't see the ingredients listed on my bottle of Copperbrill.

Check Morakniv's website they have a lot of really cool information about the differences in steel types. I'm no expert myself.

My Pledge, Murphy's Oil Soap, Goo Gone, and Bar Keeper's Friend do not have ingredients listed either. I guess if we knew, we'd just buy the ingredient. The best cleaner for dirty old finishes I have found I learned from a man cleaning old wood pieces while he sat at a flea market. His work was gorgeous, so I asked. Short of stripping and refinishing - and I've done plenty - his method gives the best results I've seen. Here's the recipe: -One part mineral oil. -Four parts elbow grease. -Applied with 0000 steel wool.

There are instructions that come with it. A small booklet but it explains everything.

Yes a small booklet. The best thing is to go to you tube. There is a video there to show you how it works. Very simple. I just use my chain saw occasionally. Real professionals in my area use this product. Well worth the $
