Got some dirty, corroded stranded #14 copper antenna wire I need to

off the ends before soldering. What common household product(s) can I put
the ends in overnite to get 'em shiny and ready to solder?

Try mixture of salt and lemon juice. 73. Harry, VE3GRO

vinegar and salt should make quick work of it... neutralize with
baking soda or just rinse really well.

Another excellent tarnish-remover for copper, brass, and silver can be
made from baking soda and ammonia water, both available from any
decent supermarket. Takes off the tarnished surface almost instantly,
leaving clean bare metal, and rinses clean with water.
