Cleaning copper blocks

[pvtdonuts]

So from what I've gatherd is Ketchup the best way to remove any spots or stains that may result from oxidation or touching the block, i know the oils on your hands can tarnish the block, so is ketchup for a few min and then a rinse with distilled the best way?

looks liek a great build you got there... I used ot use metal polish, but hten was quickly warned that is was no good becasue it filled p the small gaps and that is a no good in watercooling unless it's with TIM, so now i have ketsup on more then my burger...

haha, so just apply to the areas that are affected and leave for 15-20?

I haven't cleaned with ketsup that much, but i know you can leave it on to long, i did have that happen, so I think we need a PRO to sep in and
give us the Low Down on Ketsup Cleaning Copper

Anything under an hour is basically fine. The issue comes when the ketchup has been on long enough for the liquid to evaporate.

Anyone tried coca cola

metal cleaner did really work good, and I never had any temp problems that i noticed, I
used Noxon and the blocks rocked, still
cleaned the surface with the alcohol swipes before mounting
but it was great....
