How should I clean dull oxidized copper of Victor R?
It looks dirty and dull but I dont want to damage the finish. Is there a safe way to clean the oxidized copper finish of the Victor R or should I just leave it alone?

Re: How should I clean dull oxidized copper of Victor R?
Good for you for asking. We see too many oxidized copper machines and especially Edison Reproducers where someone has made a misguided attempt to clean or polish it.
I have had very good results using a product like OZ, and then following up with wax a few weeks later (if necessary). Good luck!
