How do I clean a very tarnished silver plate?

Question

Have tried 3 products with little results. Thanks!

William · Answer

I sell a lot of silver on Ebay. Jewelry, silverware, serving sets. Silver polish like Wrights and dips like TarnX 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.

This may sound crazy but I read somewhere to use ketchup.

iI use wet warm wash cloth and white toothpaste gently buffing in circles then rinse well with warm water and dry asap to prevent any water spots, buff with microfiber cloth. if it has intricate areas use a toothbrush and the toothpaste in those areas.
