Brasso's for cleaning with. Are you sure this isn't a joke?

I thought its may have been latin but I got nothing from the latin-english translator!

It looks as though it could be a mock Latin aphorism, along the lines of
Illegitimi non carborundum (or variants thereof) - don't let the b*st*rds grind you down.
However, I am not sure what phrase this is meant to represent.

I think Graham W has it about right.

If you keep your hands on your money, it won't vanish.

brasso= money
inclutcho=in your clutches
intacto= intact
It most certainly is NOT Latin.
