I was just explaining this to him....Either engage respectfully, or bow out of the discussion if you can't handle it.
Peace!

when are we gonna to realize this is all a distraction to diminish the hue-man spirit? When are we gonna recognize that the value of women is mysteriously absent in all this banter? Women who carry civilizations?
smh
yes i do question the intelligence of some people, especially when you ride arrogance/ignorance in place of intelligence.
And here is the scripture so I'll go with this. It's the bible, it's never wrong.
Revelation 1:15King James Version (KJV)
15 And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace
Rev 1:15: And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace..
Burnishing is not the same thing, it has more in common with plasticity that deforms a surface when put under a load (stress).
But as I said, heat will cause brass to darken. Here is some proof that heat will turn brass dark. Also, in physics, we had to do tests like these.
Giving Brass That Aged Look
BAKING METHOD
If you have access to an oven, a cookie sheet and some foil this is a great method, especially if you want to age several pieces at the same time. Preheat your oven to 450. Lay your pieces out on a cookie sheet lined with foil. Bake at 450 for about 30 minutes, some pieces may take longer - up to an hour or so - and since not all brass is created equally some pieces might darken quicker then others so it is best to keep on eye on it and remove them from the oven once the desired color is achieved. There is a chance some brass can turn multi-toned with blues and purples. If this happens once you remove it from the heat and it cools completely you can dip it into a 50/50 solution of vinegar and water and rinse thoroughly in cold water right afterwords. Make sure you just do a quick dip or you may end up removing a lot of the oxidation and end up having to re-bake the piece. Of course if your piece has come out too dark this will also be a good way to remove some of the oxidation too.

BTW, Burnishing generates pressure, and pressure generates heat. You see, in the end, you still proved me right.
Peace!
