HOW TO CLEAN VINTAGE SILVER (EASY WAY!) with BAKING SODA / SALT / ALUMINIUM FOIL

[@dasikakn]

The old silver from India has a yellow/gold hue which I find makes it look so warm and rich. The yellow hue also indicates a higher concentration of silver in the alloy. Good for you.

Nice! I never knew that quick solution! Great test and review of both methods!

You're not supposed to leave them in once the tarnish is removed. And rinse and wipe them down after you take each piece out. But love the video!

A tea party, how fun!!!

Hey there can you tell me if these tarnished faster for you later? I’m wondering if this would break through protection

[@littlehummingbird1015]

On video showed the items after the first bath being dunked in clean water and then wiped. They got really shiney doing those two movements.

Very nice!👍👍👍

So i assume you can start with the baking soda and then follow up woth silver polish so youre not using so much polish?

[@heartofjosette]

Yeah for sure!

[@dasikakn]

I repeated it with fresh water and fresh ingredients which helped a LOT. Before the second time, I also got into the inlay designed with a soft tooth brush to agitate. I wish they let you post pictures because the end result was outstanding. I didn’t need to use the silver polish at all.

Few months later... Blacker than it ever was

[@dasikakn]

Umm this is a good thing. Real silver is supposed to blacken/tarnish. There is no such thing as non tarnishing silver that is real. Some silversmiths used reduce the silver quantity and add other (cheaper) white metals, but that’s not as valuable for the price you paid.

Didn't work at all

[@MattAllenTeller]

There may have been some kind of coating on the silver that you can't see, that made it inaccessible for the chemical reaction.

[@dasikakn]

This method totally works. Either there is a coating or it wasn’t silver to begin with.
