The hint below for copper – works fine. I did 11 pan bottoms in about
15 minutes using about 1-2 oz of ketchup. My set of Revere Ware pans
are about 35 years old!!! I just spread it all over about 3 pans – then
would take the first pan – wipe it off with my fingers and use it over
on the 4th pan – and scrub very little. As fast as I got the 3 pans
smeared, I started washing the 1st one, so mine only sat a few minutes.
This was easier than the last “copper cleaner” I bought and LOTS
cheaper. Thanks KarenMO
