I have never had an experience with green hands from brass, but with copper yes. It takes months maybe years for a horn to develop a patina and I stripped my old King cornet in my avatar pic about a year ago and that's how it looks now. It gets played about two hours a week. So I don't know about tarnish and the green hand thing.

Could that be one of the reasons the hulk was green...maybe in his spare time...

I have noticed that when I brushed the bell of my TR-300 the bell quickly tarnished. I don't know, I mean I just don't know what to think. Too many possibilities, too little time. The babies are crying...gottago.
