Thanks for all the responses guys! I guess I have alot of things I could try.
I wanted to ask mostly because 41s reflector kinda has a dull look to it. And I was wondering what I could use to shine it up a bit. The last thing I wanted to do was destroy the plating. But I don't know what its made of, or plated with. 41s reflector has a silver shine to it, where as 340s has a gold tint. 340s is still pretty shiney but could use some cleaning. 41s does have some small pitting spots in the reflector.
We do have brite boy(and have has brasso) at Knotts that we use for the brass. I could try that in a small spot.
Here are some close up shots of 340 and 41.(well these are just what I have on file) Anyone have an Idea what the reflectors are made of?
