Just an FYI for future, never put copper, brass, aluminium or silver in the dishwasher, it ruins it. Dishwasher soap contains sand or other things that etches. All you can do is try to polish them, I like Brasso or Wright's polishes.

You can clean copper with a mix of vinegar and salt. Rub it on and then clean it off.
Mix 1 tsp of salt in 1 cup vinegar, add enough flour to make a paste. Put on your object for 15 minutes and then clean it off. Do not use ammonia products on brass or copper as it ruins the finish.
