Well, not particularly extreme, but I have never found a way to remove the fingerprints off my copper heatsinks, so I think you'll have a difficult time doing so unless you venture into the lands of dangerous chemistry and use rather more dangerous substances.
Either way, funny how "Cillit Bang" can restore the shine to a penny but won't do jack to a copper surface :D

Sparkle is the product you are thinking of for silver Ithink
Ammonia works particularly well on copper
