I got my dtek tc-4 over the weekend and I was all excited I opened it up and touched the copper base with my hands...now I know this won't effect the performance but I was wondering if there was a way to clean the copper base so I don't see my finger prints all over it? =) or is it a lost cause since it'll look like a dirty penny anyways in a few months?

Ketchup will make it nice and shiney. Then clean with alcohol.

I use that and rinse it with water, dry it off and use IPA.Spade said:

Great info. I was just about to head out to the hardware store for some type of metal polish. Toothpaste it is...

Sounded like a joke didn't it. It isn't though.
Drop a dirty and tarnished penny into some hot sauce and you will see what I mean. It REALLY works.

Cheep way is cream of tarter and baking soda.
Hardware stores sell brass and metal polish called Braso
it is the best I have ever used and the U.S. NAVY agrees.
