I think it’s a great way to polish silver items without investing too many hours scrubbing and rinsing. Which is great, because while the remedy works , we can optimize the time we have left to dedicate to other cleaning .
Is this good for all silver? The answer is yes , but in any case I don’t use it for all the objects I own, because in some cases it can be less convenient.
I’ll give you an example: if you have to clean a tray or a teapot (which have a smooth surface so to speak), this technique is perfect. If you have objects with decorations or with additional elements (such as wood or stones) it could be aggressive and the black patina may not be eliminated perfectly .
In these cases, it is better to opt for toothpaste , or with a little bicarbonate, always proceeding very delicately.
Small exception: the Pandora bracelet
A small parenthesis should be made for the Pandora bracelet , which is made of silver, but is also equipped with charms that have stones or decorations. What to do in this case?
The aluminum salt method is great for polishing the Pandora bracelet , but separate the more resistant charms from the more delicate ones. In this video you will find the whole process:
As you can see, the procedure is practically the same . We’ll use a cup for its size, then cover it with aluminum. One or two tablespoons of salt will suffice in this case .
Let it act and the bracelet will also be as good as new.
Remember to always test the remedy in a hidden area first, to avoid ruining your silver.
