Polish your shoes with a brush.

It washes, it dries, and it polishes. It won't scratch surfaces.

EXAMPLE: The young man got a haircut and polished his shoes carefully before his job interview because he wanted to make a favorable impression.

and he cleans all the pieces embosses them and polishes them and then reassembles the whole thing and a week later I come back and ask "Where is my watch?" And he hands it to me.

He rubbed up the silverware with a clean dry cloth.
