5 Strategies To Prevent Tarnishing Of Silver
Now, the need for gold has skyrocketed. They are highly viable and they are nice additions to any one’s collections. Then again, the number one problem that is faced by silver jewelry owners and collectors is tarnishing. Why does silver tarnish, particularly sterling silver? How can it be prevented?
In chemistry, silver is not that reactive as compared to other metals. Mostly, it doesn’t react with oxygen and water. Then again, if silver is mixed with other metals and alloys, the purity of the silver can decrease and tarnishing or rusting may develop. Copper can chemically react with oxygen in the air, as with Sodium chloride which is mostly called table salts. Sodium chloride can wear away and the salt corrosion can characteristically appear above silver salt containers or shakers. Similarly, tarnish is what develops when silver becomes silver sulfide. What happen is that the usual silvery color turns dark black. It is common in silvers spoon or metals. When the sulfides in silver spoons react with the air around, it can turn black.
The good news is that silver tarnishing is preventable. If you want your silver to glow and shine like new again here are a few tips.
Make use of Aluminum Foil
Here is an easy way to clean stubborn tarnish in costume jewelry or teapots. First, cover the inside bottom of the glass heat proof dish. Then, get a piece of aluminum foil in your kitchen and place one silky sheet inside. The silky sheet must lie inside up. Put the grayish and tarnished silver pieces at the bottom of the dish and add one big tablespoon of baking soda. Slowly pour boiling water over it until it covers the whole piece. The tarnish will gradually collect on the aluminum foil. The result is your sterling silver is clean and very agreeable to the eyes once again. To maintain the glinting appearance of silver, once you remove your silver, rinse it thoroughly. Apply the polish in generous amount.
Apply Baking Soda
Baking soda is very beneficial in maintaining the beauty of silvery jewelries and other silver pieces. Just mix a paste of baking soda and water. Deliberately rub the silver with the mixture. Rinse and dry with a clean piece of textile. If you have silvery flatware at home, simply sprinkle the baking soda on a moist cloth and rub it on the flatware gently.
Use Chalk
Naturally, chalk can absorb the moisture that causes tarnishing of silver. To avoid tarnishing and rusting of silver, add a couple of chalks to the place where you store your silver.
Apply Toothpaste
Coat your sterling silver with a commercial toothpaste to remove stubborn stains and tarnish. Next, run it under warm water. Froth it up then rinse it off completely. For hard to reach areas use soft bristle toothbrush.
Store It Properly
If you are not wearing your sterling silver, make sure that you deposit your pieces properly. Before storing your silvery pieces, cover them in a jewelry polishing cloth. Find a plastic zip-lock bag or a basic sandwich bag and place the cloth inside. Zip-lock bags are recommended as it can prevent moisture from getting inside.
Removing tarnish can be difficult. Fortunately there are techniques to avoid and to get rid of them fully. If you wish to maintain the beauty of your silver pieces consider the tips above. You may also invest in good quality silver polish to keep your silver pieces shiny and glittery than ever before.
