Anyone know the best way to clean tarnished silver?, seem to have messed up my shiny cross up with something in the shower. obviously didn't like the shower gel. thanks Geoff.

Silvo or a Silver polishing cloth from local friendly hardware store. Better still get V V Nice GR member by the surname of TREGENZA possibly Dianna maybe her first name to make you a NEW designer cross for HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE amounts of money xxxxxx

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO NOT the silver dip - it ruins jewellery. Something chemical reactionary etc. x

toothpaste and a soft toothbrush dampen article first then brush gently rinse and ....bobs your uncle .....only use on sterling silver though

Tomato sauce ? or was that another tip for something else ? E x :o))

Thanks Dianne, if it doesn't scrub up i'll give you a shout.

Any brand of sauce or toothpaste Girls.

Isn't there something you do with bicarb hot water and tin foil? Germaine x Just found hths I think this is whay I mean. This is easy and fast, and all natural! Get a tin pie plate and line the bottom with aluminum foil. Sprinkle some baking soda on the tin foil, and lay your necklace on it. Boil a little water and pour it over the tin foil. Voila! Your necklace will be shiny in seconds. at least I learned something in chemistry!

blimey this is like cookery class lol

Line a small bowl with silver foil, put the tarnished silver in and sprinkle with a spoonful of bicarbonate of soda, pour over boiling water and the tarnish will disappear in a few minutes. Remove the item, rinse in cold water and dry on a soft cloth. It takes about five minutes and is idiot proof. Louise

Germaine , Yes there is , Fill a sink with hot water add washing soda and a bit of salt, line the bottom of the sink with tin foil and place the tanished item on the foil . Leave for about 10 seconds then wipe with soft cloth . Cath
