Default How to remove green patina copper sulfate oxidation?

somebody wrote:
I've been googling on how to clean green patina, or rather copper
sulfate oxidation from come metalic components. All I can find is
how to add it, not remove it! Evidently, this green substance is
desirable for certain applications, such as artwork. What can I use
to remove it from some copper hinges?


-Thanks


Navy used to use catsup for their copper galley steam tables. Because it is
acidic. Acid reduces (removes/reverses) oxides.

Abrasion works too
