To clean silver, a simple polishing cloth is usually the most effective method of truly polishing your jewelry. Dip style cleaners just remove oxidization and do not truly buff the surface for a good shine, and often times can be extremely damaging to your gems. A polishing cloth with a few good rubs can remove oxidization and smooth most surface scratches that dull the finish on your silver pieces. Follow this with a quick scrub using an old worn out toothbrush and either toothpaste (non-abrasive, non-polishing gel or paste) or mild detergent for a showroom shine!
