Just got a Baldwin tenor banjo and some of the components are tarnished. Used Simichrome polish but didn’t do a whole lot. Any other things to try to get it cleaned?
Thanks,

A LOT of elbow grease. I have seen things get so tarnished that basically they refuse to clean up. If you rub and scrub too hard or too much, you can damage or remove the plating. an alternative is to get the parts replated. I don't think nickel is too terribly expensive but GOLD sure is!

I'll put more of my elbow into it :). Had thought about getting the parts replayed. Thanks.
