Cat Urine on a Brass Candlestick Lamp

I have a brass candlestick lamp, 36" tall. The base is made of 3 feet: with space between. In other words, it is not a solid flat base. One of my cats peed against it and the "feet" turned green with a slight build-up on the metal. How can I clean it?

It may be permanently etched from the acid in the urine. You can burnish it for a different finish, but I think you're stuck.

Try using a soda and salt paste, then rinse.
