Troubleshooting
Tankard has lost its shine.
Gently polish the tankard using a dedicated pewter polish and a soft cloth. Ensure you follow the polish manufacturer's instructions and avoid abrasive materials.
Water spots are visible on the surface.
Ensure the tankard is dried thoroughly with a soft, lint-free cloth immediately after washing to prevent water spots from forming.
The embossed title is difficult to read due to tarnish.
Carefully use a soft brush (like a toothbrush) with a small amount of pewter polish to clean the embossed area, then wipe clean and dry.
