Letter 18663 Removing old paint from brass   ++ I have a National Cash Register Model 332 that I would love to restore. It was from my Uncles business. My problem is I'm not sure how to clean the case. I believe the case is brass but to appears to have had a grayish paint or something applyed to it. This paint has either chipped off in spots or wore off. I'm not sure what to use to removed this and take it down to the brass. Thanks for any help.
