RE: Cleaning a Silver Bracelet By charli (Guest Post) My guess bracelet was silver before i started my training, afterwards the bagle on the bracelet became a copper colour, how do I get rid of this?

I bought a jar of silver polishing cream, and put the bracelet in the jar, burying it in the cream. Left it in for 2 days, took it out and rinsed the cream off, and polished it. The really shiny finish was gone, stripped off by the chlorine, but the matte finish I wound up with meant thatI could wear the bracelet again.

How do you remove 'chemical' (sulfur/lye) stains from sterling silver???

I used some baking soda on a wet cloth and it came right off. I then rinsed in white vinegar and boy does it shine again. You might try this. I was heart-sick when I seen what I did - I'll remove all jewelry before I do that again. Good luck.

Once the surface is scratched, there's nothing you can do about it. If you went swimming in chlorinated water, the silver will be permanently pitted from the chlorine and there's nothing you can do to restore the surface. The less and fewer types of chemicals you use and the less time you soak jewelry, the better. Last resort: ask a jeweler if he or she can re-dip it. It's not expensive.

Silver is very reflective and shiny, such as after polishing and drying. Both fine and Sterling silver are solid metal; silver plate is layered metal. Silver should have a silver mark indicating its metal content, using the numbers shown above, stamped in the metal. Silver plate has the imprint of the base metal. British silver plate is marked EPSN, which means electroplate silver nickel. Look for the imprint to tell which kind of metal is in your bracelet.

Let it soak for 5 mins. or so, rinse and wipe. Nice shine. Posted on 09/08/2006 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Cleaning a Silver Bracelet By sandy63 (489) Profile Blog!

I take an old or new toothbrush and use it only to clean my jewelry.The paste is great for cleaning diamond rings and just about any jewelry, costume or real. thanks Posted on 09/08/2006 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Cleaning a Silver Bracelet By cookwie (1260) Profile Contact I'm wondering if it's not tarnished, but stripped of it's shiny coating from a chemical in the water. Sterling silver is gray. If it's shiny, it's plated. Posted on 09/05/2006 | Report Spam or Abuse
