Thought you might find it of use.<br /><br />"Sodium carbonate, in a solution with common salt, may be used for cleaning silver. In a non-reactive container (glass, plastic or ceramic) aluminium foil and the silver object are immersed in the hot salt solution. The elevated pH dissolves the aluminium oxide layer on the foil and enables an electrolytic cell to be established. Hydrogen ions produced by this reaction reduce the sulfide ions on the silver restoring silver metal. The sulfide can be released as small amounts of hydrogen sulfide. Rinsing and gently polishing the silver restores a highly polished condition."Jayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01150130667097514688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6120586935905234915.post-27726175760344494742015-05-26T16:34:31.781-05:002015-05-26T16:34:31.781-05:00Hilarious, Steve.Hilarious, Steve.Margery Billdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05589667608391862832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6120586935905234915.post-35294181854424869922015-05-26T06:39:18.309-05:002015-05-26T06:39:18.309-05:00Northern has better quality but you DO pay for it!...Northern has better quality but you DO pay for it!Larry Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02282254026681944326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6120586935905234915.post-61544940641357461812015-05-25T21:00:57.215-05:002015-05-25T21:00:57.215-05:00ditto. but the 20% can often ALSO be used on sale...ditto. but the 20% can often ALSO be used on sale items... which brings the price down to about what some things are really worth... :-)Larry Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02282254026681944326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6120586935905234915.post-89739192033820716522015-05-25T20:38:17.174-05:002015-05-25T20:38:17.174-05:00Thanks J.

My experience is that the quality is lacking, but if it's an item you will only use occasionally or if you only need it for a short period of time, it's better than spending a whole lot more for a product which will end up gathering dust in your garage due to lack of use.Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03159830920803677451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6120586935905234915.post-53018218610455352322015-05-25T19:10:36.814-05:002015-05-25T19:10:36.814-05:00I've been thinking of buying some things from ...I've been thinking of buying some things from Harbor Freight.
