How To Remove Scratches From Silver Jewelry?
Wednesday, May 28, 2014
Sterling silver omega necklace, long silver chain, bulk sterling silver
chain, silver omega necklace, rings, bracelets, etc will be subjected to get
bumped or rubbed or will be in contact with other surfaces such that scratches
cannot be avoided. If bracelets happens to have any enameled work on it they
can be effectively shielded with the help of bare silver plated.
The alternative way is to choose any polishing materials. If you are not
satisfied with the silver polish, use common household products such as baking
soda or toothpaste to polish the scratches present in them. Be careful in
selecting the toothpaste such that it must be a paste, not gel, and must not
have any whitening options. If baking soda is used mix it up with hot water.
The other way is to use the cream that can be purchased from the malls to
make the Sterling silver chain jewelry accessories shine brighter and remain
them with less number of scratches. Give it a try and remember to work in circular
motion, it definitely works.
The best way to prevent more scratches for a longer term is to store them in
a case or some type of storage boxes. All pieces should be completely dried
before being stored. Wrap the silver in flannel or tissue paper before placing
the sterling silver chain jewelry accessories in the storage container.
Scratches are almost unavoidable. If you get it re- polished soon enough it
will get scratched again. If you keep trying to polish it often it will be a vicious
cycle. But the best advice to live without scratches is the only way that can
be re- polished now and then.
