Are you sure it is a bronze class? It doesn't look bronze on my screen.

Looks OK to me, but it looks more like a darkened silver clasp.Comment

I agree with Rich, it looks more like a dark silver clasp.
I would never use any chemical cleaner on a Third Reich award but sometimes a quick wash with some soap/washing up liquid and water (applied with a soft toothbrush), followed by a dab with a clean cotton cloth and final thorough dry afterwards with a hair dryer can remove the dirt but leave the patina. I give all my clasps this treatment on arrival - for hygiene purposes if no other! It might help in this case too.
Best wishes
