Cleaning the Copper
Dear Aunt Daisy, The simplest way of all to clean a copper-verdigris, lime encrusting, every mark just melts away like magic-is with kerosene, I have used it for 20 years and my mother before me. All abrasive cleaners have the effect of calling for constant cleaning, whereas kerosene does not. Kerosene is often used to whiten boiled clothes. Just rub round briskly with a well soaked kerosene rag and then wipe with a clean dry one and the: job is done, with no fear of marks appearing on clothes next wash
day.
Te Awamutu.
