I'm going to be building something - not plumbing - with 3/4" copper pipe. As you can see from
this image, the pipe is a different "color" than the fittings. The fittings are bright copper, the
pipe itself is much duller.

Anybody know why that is or more importantly, how to shine up the pipe so that it matches
the fittings?

Try Brasso.

That wasn't the question. Sheesh.

Well, in his defense, I did ask how to get the pipe to match the fittings. In fact, I even
said that getting them to match was more important than why there was a difference in color.

Thank you. I did try and offer an answer to the "more important"
question.
