any white toothpaste, buy the cheapest one at the dollar store, Try pepsodent white toothpaste, apply with rag, and once clean, buff with clean cloth, cheaper than buying in a liquid bottle the silver cleaner. -

ACK! Please only use silver polish CREAM (Wright's brand is what I use) you can easily buy at the grocery store for about $4! Anything else will destroy your patina and cause rapid oxidation and tarnishing.If you are lucky enough to have silver pieces - even if they are silverplate - treat them with the respect they deserve and they can become family heirlooms. -

My husband came home from our town swap shop the other day with a Reed and Barton silver plated tea pot. I got out my Wrights and polished it up. Those other methods are not worth the effort. I know as I collect lots and lots of silver. Susan is absolutely right. I used to do the boiling water, salt, aluminum foil thing and ended up with a big mess and items improperly cleaned and marked.![]()
