a large bowl

of tin foil to taste

a cup full of coarse salt

hot water to taste

The first thing to do is cover the bowl with foil . Then heat a pan of water , but do not let it boil.

When it is ready, pour the water into the bowl (it must be resistant) then add the salt , without the need to stir it to dissolve it.

Then gently insert the silver object into the bowl and let it rest for at least half an hour . The salt, in contact with hot water and the aluminum foil, will activate a real chemical reaction that will help us transfer the oxidation from the silver to the aluminum foil.

Once the necessary time has passed (wait until the water is lukewarm, so you don’t burn yourself), take out the silver object and wipe with a microfibre cloth to remove the rest of the black patina , without however risking scratching it.

The method works! But where is it best to use it?

After having explained how the salt-aluminum method works for polishing silver, I want to give you my opinion. The method works, of course!
