Hey, thank you for the video. This video was exactly what I was looking for 😊👍👍

Thanks for all these recipes.. i just washed my bubble plates in a vinegar salt baking soda.. man they cam out like almost new.. just in case you wanna try

Hey Randy. Got another recipe for ya. 6 lbs black cherries, 6 lbs rainier cherries, 1 gal of black cherry juice, and enough sugar to bring it to 1.080. Champagne yeast works well.

Thank-you so much for the video it was extremely easy to follow and helpful

I also use 551! it does work the best!

Thanks. I needed this!

Randy, Another good copper cleaning agent for the EXTERIOR of columns or parrots.... Plane old table KETCHUP ... Rub on, wait, wipe off, rinse clean with wudder. ;) Cheers Buddy!

Thank you for the tutorial. Excellent information.

I use the vinegar and salt and water to clean my bubble plates I use a little more salt but it works great for me

I was wondering. . . is it necessary to really use water at all in the 551? What would happen if you just used the other ingredients and not the water?

EXCELLENT! Thank You!

Nice video. Think you can spray it on a bay window roof?

I’ll bring my copper to you! Thanks!

The blue/green is that not an oxidation layer, called patina, who protects the copper? Last week I was at my local drugstore and she said that citric acid is less aggresive then vinegar. Ciric acid is oderless, you always smells vinegar and you have to rinse a lot. Preferably use distilled water and not tap water. In distilled spirits there are no acids and minerals that affect or discolor the metals. After using the acid solution you would neutralize the copper. Put the copper in a water bath with a high PH solution, sodium bicarbonate or calcium carbonate is perfect. But I think, this is a little bit overkill. Most important. Always rinse with water and dry well.

Awesome. Thanks!

The solution is blue because it now contains copper, I wonder if long term use would make the mesh break down…

Thank you. 🏆✌️

Happy Easter. Nice video, papa

I use 551 for everything!

Basically vinegar cleans copper. 👍

Is it any way cleaning by Hydrocarbon spray

Skip all this. Unless you just like to waste time. Get some muratic acid and apply to a cloth (wear gloves and a mask) and wipe the copper to factory finish in seconds. 🎉🎉 cheers.

Works great

Does anyone know what percentage is vinegar?

You ok randy, what happened to your hand? hope all is well and keep up.the good work

Fantastic video. Thank you. Very much appreciated.

That paste sounds like sandpaper.

I'm not here to disrespect this video but if you want to clean copper you need ( tarn-x ) two wipes and clean and you can even pour it back in bottle if you using it and it's dirty looking after cleaning. I use tarn-x inside and out side my parrot mainly and wow it cleans in seconds. Wipe clean rinse and reuse 👍👍👍

Nice! Subscribed!

I'm only interested in cleaning the inside of the copper. The outside I could care less about. Thank you, Randy!

Can anybody answer this question… how do you remove a scratch on a copper sink without taking the oxidation out…

I boiled some chicken tenders in distilled water last nite, and it boiled over some. When I washed the pan, the copper was spotlessly CLEAN where that liquid was on the bottom of the copper bottom pan. WHY? And is it safe to EAT that chicken?

Hello can you please tell me what strength Hydrogen Peroxide used in the 551 Solution

Mix them both together and call it a day lol

Okay, I understand how to clean copper. However, do you have any idea of how to clean copper contacts on a bandsaw butt welder? The copper plates are used to hold the bandsaw blades in place, and then they're welded together. Simple process with a machine designed to do so. However, it's an old machine, and now, even though the bandsaw blade is contacting the upper and lower surface on the copper, the weld is only happening on the bottom and not the top, which indicates that the copper plates need to be cleaned of years worth of carbon. There is NOTHING else that can be cleaned without addressing the electricity, and sometimes the weld works. That indicates the plates. I have looked EVERYWHERE for how to clean the plates on the bandsaw butt welder, but find absolutely nothing. So, as these plates seem to be able to be removed for cleaning, do you have any thoughts? Don't touch it and let a pro clean it? Simply take off the plates and clean them of all of the carbon and slag that's built up over several decades? I volunteer at a 50+ shop. We buy band saw blades by the foot in 100 ft rolls and have to butt weld to make new blades. Cheapest way to go. Two of us supervisors, who can weld blades, tried numerous times over the course of 3 hours and the consistent problem was the upper plate. Would weld on the bottom half, but not the top. Weld failed every time, until the one time we got lucky and it welded sufficiently on both sides. Still holding. I'm assuming the easiest fix is that the upper plates need cleaning. Can you help?

Off-topic... look up home remedies for ringworm it looks like you got a bad case of it on your hand. It's a fungus and it's highly contagious

4:25 turn sound up!! 👊👊🤣🤣🤣🤣

I Soak all my copper parts in citric acid.

Soak in star san

RANDY, NICE VID…FYI…IM FAIRLY CERTAIN U HAVE RINGWORM.

Why don’t you just use lemon juice or ketchup????

Just soak your copper in starsan!

That’s cause of the lemon juice

500 ml of “wudder”

Try tarnex

Thanks! What do you recommend for drying? After cleaning with vinegar, which worked perfectly, I put my copper in the oven, at aproximately 40 or 50 °C, and the copper reoxidized again

Your right hand looks like you have a case of ringworm!

No, I cannot tell the difference.

That’s to much work!!!

How come you dont have this measured out already. Gosh. Took you 30 tries to get enough vinegar. Wasted 5 mins in the video😂

This is the complete opposite of an ASMR video. Between the sound of him breathing, and the sound of that salt scraping against the side of that container I want to stab my ears out
