I had a shiny #12 brass screw left over from a previous project and dipped the head of it in the bluing liquid for about 20 seconds, and it came out looking like antique brass. I tapped the screw head on a paper towel to get the excess liquid off, then let it sit on the paper towel for a minute or so before wiping it off good. It retained the antique look it had coming out of the liquid. I believe leaving it in the liquid longer or dipping it a second time, etc., would darken it up even more, but it has a nice aged look to it even now; I wish I could post a photo of it for you, but this is about the best I can do.

The bottle only tells you how to do it on steel. It might. You should all the company. Their customer service is really good. I had to call because I was using it wrong and they explained everything over the phone

I don't have any brass in contact with it.hard to imagine that it would, I spent close to 17 yrs. W/NYS Canals I wouldn't hesitate to try set a timer for a couple weeks then check it. Pete

somewhat...it depends on how much "Gunk" is in there....sometimes I clean the brass before decapping then clean the hole with a Q-tip.....

Never tried it on aluminum. Works great on brass and stainless steel. Surfaces with an already polished finish should be the best option.

Any kind of metal? Probably not. However I have used it to cut the brass compression ring off the 1/2 inch copper pipe when I needed to change out a toilet valve. I can tell you with certainty that it will cut any thin,soft metal (copper, brass etc. Probably would cut any small screw). just go slow and let it cut. Too often people try to force a blade to cut. Go easy on the pressure and it'll cut. Hope this helps.

Yes, it works on all metals It has worked great for me on yellow and rose gold watches.

Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc, so this will work on copper. I actually used it on bronze (copper/tin alloy) and worked great.

I would be very gentle if you use it on the painted sections of the blade or plated parts of the sword. This has stripped the brass color off a few plated pieces I've used it on in the past. As far as stainless steel, yes you can use it and it does an amazing job. Be forewarned though, if the stainless you are polishing has a brushed finish to it it will change that somewhat and give more of a satin finish.

Not sure, have just used it on copper. Would be afraid it might hurt silver.

I do not know if it can be used on copper or not. I guess you could try it on a part that does not show first to see if it works. Sorry, but I did not use it on copper.

I use mine on bronze brass and aluminum regularly making finer adjustments in the surface. Hard grinding on a grinding wheel on the bench next to this device. The two machines work well together.

I don't know. I don't have anything brass I can test it on. If I find something, I'll let you know.

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.

Doesn't state it but highly unlikely given it is solid brass. Just email them. I'm sure you will get a quick answer.Their service guy is Joshua Jantz <joshua@christfocus.com>

I don't know for sure. Contact Rust-Oleum, they should know. It did work on metal but porcelain may be different.
