I'd like to re-tarnish it. What is the most rapid method to get the tarnish back on? William K. - Redwood City, CA - How do I make brass tarnish ? Keith M. - Hi, William. Hello, Keith. Please see our FAQ on Patination. I think it will help. But if you only want to darken the brass, you might simply try Brass Darkening Solution [link is to product info at Rockler]. Good luck.
