What are some good solutions to use for cleaning silver

But why do all that scrubbing if you can get something that will easily get into the tight corners?
Personally, I like 3M Tarni Shield. Non-abrasive, and cleans up with water.

If it's really grungy, this works great and keeps it shiny for a long time:

With all due respect, the reason I originally posted my response (hopefully not yet taken literally 
) was because this very subject has been beaten to death on TubeNet several times in just the last couple of weeks.

Maybe if he had, he wouldn't have had to write so many searching for the right sound!Chuck(G) wrote:Does the Haydn Symphony No. 102 have a tuba part?

or
I prefer the Hagerty's spray, it gets between the valves nicely.

Doesn't matter WHAT you use, it always seems better with a 7% solution

Id watch out, pick out the idiots in the forum first before you take their advice literally, regardless how abstract or logical their statements seem. One question, with spray on polish, is any wiping required, like the ''cream''?

You spray it on let it dry then wipe it off. OR they say you can wash it off too. Which ever way you go it doesn't require much rubbing. Spray Hagerty is not cheap. I use the non-spray on most of the tuba and save the spray for hard to get to places.XtremeEuph wrote:One question, with spray on polish, is any wiping required, like the ''cream''?

Soak 'em in a hot solution of zinc sulfate. It kills the moss on my roof.SplatterTone wrote:A search reveals there has never been a discussion on home remedies for toenail fungus. Anyone? Hmmmmm? I'll bet we could post some great pictures.

You have to sand paper the nails down first, get them thin so the bug killer can penetrate.Soak 'em in a hot solution of zinc sulfate.
High dosage gamma rays work reasonably well too.

A coat of plain paste wax might work just as well. Or perhaps a spritz of Pledge furniture spray.John wrote:Okay, let's add... then wipe it down really well, then let it air dry to kill the smell. But you have to get something in between the silver and the air, else it tarnishes right back in a few days.
