Answer: Such frames can be made bright agaln by any one of the fol- lowing methods, providing their gild- ing is not worn through. This refers, however, only to gilding done with gold leaf or Dutch metal; not to frames painted with bronze powders. Method One: Sponge with a weak solution of salt of tartar. Method Two: Rub with a cut lemon ghd then sponge with water containing one tablespoon of baking soda to the pint. Method Three: Sponge with the white of an egg into which you have stirred one tablespoon of baking soda. Method Four: Cover with a thick paste of sifted whiting and alcohol (using a small nail brush to get into carving), then rub off with flannel before it hardens, brushing the paste out of crevices and carvhig with a dry brush.
