If you have any type of badge that needs polish, check out the before and after pictures posted below. Seeing is believing, and you will see why so many, policemen, sheriffs, fireman and security personal insist on Simichrome polish. We used a Berkshire County Deputy Sheriff badge for our demonstration. It was polished to a mirror like finish in 4 easy steps.

Simichrome Polish in a tube

Materials Used:

Application:

1. Apply a small dab of Simichrome right from the tube onto any soft cloth. A microfiber cloth is a very good choice if you have one.

2. Take the cloth and apply the polish and rub it evenly over the entire surface of the badge with moderate pressure.

3.  Flip your cloth to a clean  area and shine to the desired sheen.

4. The use a Fuller Horse Hair Detail Brush to get the polish in and out of the intricate design areas of  the badge works very well. Buff the badge briskly with the brush to a high sheen.

5. That’s it, you’r done in a matter of minutes.The Simichrome leaves a protective film that will retard tarnish. To keep your metals looking good, a 7 inch square microfiber cloth is easy to keep in your car or on your person and with a quick wipe restore the brilliance of the shine. The microfiber cloth is also great for keeping your glasses, computer screens, and dashboards clean & dust free.

Before and After:

Polish Guy Tip Polish Guy Tip : “Don’t use an old tooth brush on your badge unless you want to scratch it. Horse hair brushes are soft natural bristles made for this type of application. The same goes for tooth paste. Tooth paste is not made to polish metal. If your badge is in poor condition, or you want the patina left on so everyone knows you are a seasoned veteran, just use a slightly dampened microfiber cloth to keep it looking sharp. “
