YES!!! Since it is impossible to completely buff a tuba that assembled, and fairly risky to buff even those areas which ARE accessible, I have taken up the use of brasso and jeweler's red rouge (the final buffing compound) on a strap of cloth (cheesecloth, or old ~clean~ baby diapers) and ragging all areas of the horn including in and around all of those braces, etc like a shoe shine. It really gets a new surface and I'm certain the brasso is the kick in the pants that does it. The rouge gives it the ultra shine. It also helps to sing "laaaa leeee"---Hey Moe! you sure this only takes a minute?"
