Answer 1

You could use Rustoleum primer, and then metal paint on top of that.

Answer 2

Dish cleansing soap gets any filth off. i admire Maas silver polish to bathe. As you sparkling the tarnish will come off further and extra. even perhaps a 2d or third bypass-around with the polish to get it top, then it could have a coating which will help forestall new tarnish. regardless of if that's a actual vintage then you definately do no longer choose for to coat it with corn syrup filled sticky pepsi. The ghetto approach is toothpaste. Paste. no longer gel.
