Visit Your Local Robert Dyas Store Liquid Brasso was responsible for some catastrophic failures of big textile mill engines of the North, repeated applications to shine up the nice brass or bronze cased hydraulic releif valves on the cylinders wiped a small amount inside each time, which dried and eventually filled and gummed up the springs & valve, come the day when they needed to operate, many tons of cast iron went BANG - the attached in addition to smashing the head and piston, broke the cylinder horizontally so that when they dismantled the cylinder, the top half lifted off 'like taking the top off a boiled egg' It is also possible to identify the technique used on the items by noticing the chipping of small gold particles which only occurs objects that have been created using fire gilding. Gilding through electrolysis tends to gradually fade and eventually disappears rather than chip. It is sometimes difficult to trace the exact date and origin of silver gilt items, but a helpful way to try and identify the age of the object is by looking at the areas of gilt.
