I was hoping I would be able to get something at the grocery store. I didn't know if I should wash first or polish first. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/polishing-silver#post-1241444 Mon, 25 Nov 2013 12:09:16 +0000 Alivoo01 1241444@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use Tiffany's polish cleaner for my jewelry that works well, but I agree with @septca: to use a rag you don't mind tossing bc it gets pretty gross!!</p> <p>I heard toothpaste is a great cleaning agent also. just make sure you test a small area first to make sure it doesn't "scratch/damage" your silver! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/polishing-silver#post-1241399 Mon, 25 Nov 2013 11:58:41 +0000 septca 1241399@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh, lucky girl!</p> <p>I have a bottle of Silv-O polish that I bought at the grocery store. It works really well - just make sure you use a rag you don't midn tossing.</p> <p>I think you need to polish, then wash, then dry REALLY well.</p> <p>There is a "fast" way, too - I have never tried this (I don't have silver flatware), but my MIL swears by it:<br /> <a href="http://www.goodhousekeeping.com/home/cleaning-organizing/clean-silver-flatware" rel="nofollow">http://www.goodhousekeeping.com/home/cleaning-organizing/clean-silver-flatware</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/polishing-silver#post-1241339 Mon, 25 Nov 2013 11:46:50 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 1241339@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I inherited some silverware from my great grandmother and plan on using it on Thanksgiving. It needs to be polished though. Do you have any tips? Do I need to wash it all first? What's a good brand of polish to buy? </p>
