Remember that many of these tarnish removal chemicals /also/ leave a 
'protective layer' in order to prevent the metal from tarnishing 
again. This can prevent adhesion - I'm surprised Tarn-X worked. I 
would reccomend wiping down with 91% isporopyl (Wal-mart has this) 
with Bounty's 'No Streak Glass Paper Towels', designed not to leave 
residue. Some paper towels will leave their own residue - I've found 
that Scott white shop rags on a roll leave a mess if used with 
acetone.
