Plain old fashioned toothpaste without any additives or gel or anything. A toothbrush works real well getting in to the little spots. It rinses of with warm water. If it has hard stones like diamonds, I plunk them in a small dish with alcohol in it, it helps it dry quicker and cleaner and I set them on a soft towel to dry and buff with it if the piece needs it. Don't use alcohol on stones that are more delicate, like turquoise, opal and pearl. I hope this helps!

Ultra bright toothpaste works in seconds to remove tarnish from sterling silver jewelry. Just add a dab of it on damp jewelry, rub the area with a soft brush or cloth and then rinse well.

Here's a recipe for a DIY silver cleaning solution: materials needed: 2 clean glass bowls, alum foil, salt, baking soda, and warm (not hot) water. Line a glass bowl with the foil. Sprinkle in 1 Tablespoon of baking soda and 1 Tablespoon of salt. Pour in warm water and stir. Put in your silver jewelry. Each piece must come in contact with the foil. Let them soak for 2 minutes. Move items around a bit and then take it all out and put it in the second bowl filled with clean water. Remove and lay everything out on a clean cloth to dry. Heavy tarnish may require more time in solution.

I sell a lot of silver on Ebay. Jewelry, silverware, serving sets. Silver polish and dips tend 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, ceramics, sneakers, plastics, etc. For my sales I needed one product for cleaning everything.

.Had a silversmith tell me plain old cigarette and stove ashes. just rub with a dry rag or tooth brush. I have tried it and it does work

These are many ways to clean your silver, try one of these:

No more tarnishing with aluminum

Boil 4 cups of water, a tablespoon of baking soda, and some aluminum foil. Place silverware in for 10 seconds then remove with kitchen tongs.

Ketchup isn’t just for eating

Tarnished silver can be polished with ketchup using a paper towel – for silver that has crevices, use a toothbrush.

Kill two birds with one stone

When using Windex to clean your windows, spray some on a rag and use it to scrub your silver.

Brush your silver with toothpaste

Use circular motions to brush non-gel and non-abrasive toothpaste onto silver. Leave on for five minutes before washing off with water.

Use soda for tarnished silver

Fill a plastic bowl with lemon-lime soda and place slightly tarnished silver in it for one hour. Rinse and dry with a paper towel.

I use a silver cleaning cloth. Check Amazon for them.
