Care and Cleaning

DAY TO DAY CLEANING

Because your moscow mule copper mug is 100% copper with no coating (on the inside), it will oxidize/tarnish… but not to worry, we’ve got you covered! The best practice to slow the tarnishing is to wash after use with mild dish soap and then DRY IMMEDIATELY.

**Never Put In Your Dishwasher**

If you start to see some oxidizing/tarnishing, here’s some sure shot ways to get that copper shine back and looking like new:

Shining Method 1;

Use a copper polish.  (Wright's Copper Cream is a great choice!)

  • put a pea to dime size amount of Wright's on a damp sponge or towel
  • gently rub tarnished areas inside mug, usually 10-30 seconds 
  • only use cleaner/polish on interior of mug
  • rinse thoroughly with water and dry immediately

Shining Method 2;

What you need!

  • 1-2 teaspoons of Salt
  • 1-2oz of white Vinegar

Instructions

  1. Dissolve salt into white vinegar
  2. Once salt is fully dissolved, dip a cloth or sponge into the solution and start gently rubbing away the tarnish.
  3. After all the tarnish is gone, rinse thoroughly with water and dry immediately with a clean cloth.

Shining Method 3;

What you need!

  • 1-2 teaspoons of Salt
  • 1-2oz of Lemon Juice

Instructions

  1. Dissolve salt into Lemon Juice
  2. Proceed cleaning your copper with the same steps as ‘Method 2’
  3. Rinse thoroughly with water and dry immediately
  4. There are other cleaning methods out there if you search online… However, we’ve found the above 3 to be the best and safest methods.
