    Warm water, baking soda and white vinegar. It will bubble! Like the home made volcano in your grade school science fair.

    Barkeepers. Friend. It now comes in a liquid. 4 dollars a bottle. Nice smell. Easy to use.

    I haven't tried the vinegar trick. Just usually make a paste with the baking soda and a bit of water. Old toothbrushes work really well on details you can't get at with a cloth.

    I sell a lot of silver on Ebay. Jewelry, silverware, serving sets. Silver polish tends to remove some of the metal. The foil method doesn't work that great and still leaves a grey film that still needs to be removed. I use white toothpaste (not gel)and a damp toothbrush. For large items I use a damp cloth. Also works on copper, brass, gold, porcelain, sneakers, etc. For my sales I needed one product for cleaning everything.
