I have no idea but I wonder why? They are a product on the supermarlet shelves so I can't see how it would warrent banning in schools? FWIW, I have them at both my schools.

I have an order for this too Melissa, my understanding of the prac is they only look at the packaging so the bottle can be empty. This is difficult if you dont use brasso.

Ask for a bottle from your local Fire Station, My husband (Ex-Firey) use to clean their button and bits with brasso. I feel sure they would not mind.
