I have my grandfather's (British) World War 1 medals awarding at the end of the war. I have clean the silver one but don't know how to clean the bronze?! one. I would like to present them to my father on his 90th Birthday. Can you give me recommendation for cleaning it.

Welcome to the forum Helen. As you've probably found out by now, many here including myself recommend leaving alone. The patina took a long time to get established.

My experience here.

 

Probably not the same medal, but food for thought.

Bronze medal may be a 14/15 Star
