It cleans very well, and keeps tarnish off for quite a while. It is really good on all types of metal.

I don't have a direct answer for stainless steel. I've used it on brass. It might clean brass if you went through several cycles of applying it and buffing it. It is really brasso in paste form. It is a polish designed to polish and not really to clean. It does a good job of polishing. I haven't used or looked for a stainless steel cleaner and so can't offer info on a stainless steel cleaner. I have found a good brass and chrome cleaner which is Zims Cymbal and Hardware Cleaner - just used it today (9/21/2013) on 2 cymbals.

Although I have never cleaned any items but brass, I don't see why it would not clean any type of metal. The cleaning medium of crushed walnut shells is less abrasive than other cleaning agents and is inexpensive to change which may be necessary with dirtier small automotive parts.

It's not really meant for that, especially large nuts and bolts will damage the tumbler, my garage uses a sonic machine to clean nuts and bolts. It's a real work horse for cleaning brass i've cleaned thousand of rounds with no problem.

If I had to rate this product on a scale of 1-10 I'd give it an 8 1/2. It does a pretty good job at cleaning 'real' silver and silver plate. Make sure that you go over the item's surface you're cleaning a couple of times to really get very tarnished items to look brilliant. If your item has groves or some sort of pattern you have to make sure that the product is completely wiped off and out of those groves. If you don't, you'll come to find that the product leaves a residue. Buffing after the initial wiping the product off really gives the item a wonderful shine.

I can't say with any certainty that it would work as well on copper as it did on my brass figurines. It is rather easy to use. I applied it with a terrycloth, rubbed lightly and achieved very good results. I removed it with a polishing cloth (an old tee shirt works pretty good too) On several of my figurines, I used a very fine steel wool. I suggest that you try a tube first to see if it will work for you. Good luck with you cleaning project.

No, I have used it where it has got on fresh painted metal and it never done anything to the paint. It sure polishes the brass though.

I use it for thin sheets of brass for models so I wouldn't know. You would need to check the specs.

I have never tried it on brass or copper, both of which have cleanersadvertised, but if you buy it for silver, try it. Brass and copper aretough metals to clean, silver is far easier.ss

If you want shiny/new brass then tumble them. I always do along with just a bit of polish and the brass comes out looking like new, even on 10 times reloaded brass.

I never used it on brass, however, I have used it on gold, sterling, tungsten & cobalt, and it has work wonderful. However, on my gold over sterling, I think I left the rings in a little too long because they turned a little dark. However, I just buffed them with a polishing cloth and they were as good a new.

It is usually filled with walnut or corn cob media to clean brass. There are other media choices out there but those are the most common, cost effective and do not harm the brass.
