TO PREVENT NICKEL AND BRASS FROM TARNISHING.
After nickel is polished, an oily rag frequently rubbed over the nickel surfaces will tend to keep it from tarnishing. Use "3 in 1" oil or vaseline. Before going out for a run in damp or rainy weather, the nickel or brass can be given a coat of polish without wiping it off; or use the oily rag mentioned above. This will tend to prevent tarnishing and save labour in repolishing. When there is little time to clean brass or nickel parts, paint with black or coloured enamel or have them enameled, which looks better than when tarnished.
