Do NOT use Cape Cod on brushed finishes!! You will ruin it and make it too shiny.

 

As to oiling. You can soak the bracelet in sewing machine oil, chain oil e.t.c and dry it off afterwards.

+1 avoid polishes. I ruined a sub bracelet using a polish. Luckily it was an old two tone sub with solid gold mid links so just polished it out all they way and actually looks kind of vintage but would not want that with a solid SS brushed piece. Try white lightning bike chain lube. Works great. There are some threads on it around here.

Cape Cod cloth is abrasive. That is how it removes scratches. If you rub it on brushed metal, it will remove the brushed finish.

Thought so! was just checking i was sure I read somewhere about cap coding a bracelet. Must have been shiney ones.

You can always use an abrasive 3M "scotch pad" to restore  and beautify a blemished bracelet. In mere moments, it's looking better than Factory.

Tried the 3m pad this morning on my BK Sub C. Works awesome and is quick and easy. Then did a white lightning. Now like gen:). Smooooth
