Disklavier

I vote for Tim's solution.  I recently acquired an older Mark II which 
looks great but all of the pedals were obviously neglected - dull and 
tarnished.

I spent about 10 minutes using silver polish (only thing I could find) 
and the pedals look twice as good.  Some of the tarnishing is just too 
deep for the extra effort, but given the "five feet away test", they 
look really good.

I didn't encounter any clear coat over the brass.
