How to clean and maintain brass handrails to prevent tarnishing?

Brass handrail maintenance: (1) Daily - dust with soft microfiber cloth; (2) Regular - mild soap and warm water, dry thoroughly; (3) Tarnish removal - commercial brass cleaner or lemon juice + baking soda paste; (4) Protection - apply brass lacquer or wax; (5) Polishing - unlacquered brass every 3-6 months.
