[QUOTE="jeffsoward, post: 1171150, member: 7228"] I found something; Potassium Hydrogen Tartrate (cream of tartar) Non-food applications of potassium hydrogen tartrate include its use as one of the starting materials for the production of tartaric acid. It also finds use in metal processing for such things as coloring and galvanic tinning of metals. basically, the acidic nature of COT makes it dissolve a tiny amount of the surface of the brass, thus, you get to the shiny "undercoat". If brass is left in a COT solution for too long, the brass will become hazy. [/QUOTE]
