vathsala30 · Jul 14, 2009

for cleaning silver items we use the water in which potato is boiled. dip the silver items in this water in which a little mild detergent is added. keep this aside for 5 mts and then clean with a toothbrush. them rub with vibhuthi(sacred ash) and wipe with a clean dry cloth.

Hi all,

Tip 1:

1. Take water in a big vessel . keep on gas and boil the water.
2. Cut aluminium foil into small pieces.
3. When the water boils put the silver items which u want to clean into the vessel.
4. Add the aluminium foil pieces into the vessel.
5. Add cooking soda little bit in the vessel.
6. Let the vessel be on the gas for some more time.
7. Slowly the silver lamp or plate will be clean .
8. Take the silver item out of the vessel and put it in cold water.

Tip 2:

Clean the silver items with your tooth paste. Just clean with the tooth brush itself. It will be sparkling.

Saikripa, Pitambari powder is for cleaning brass items right? Can we use the same for Silver too? I use the regular paste and vibhuti to clean the silver articles.

hi

My suggestions here..

1. If there is any function then i will use is Pitambari solution
2. Normal wash (old vibudhi's) / Tamarind / detergent soap / ash powder

Lalitha, Pitambari solution is avialble for cleaning silver. I think it costs Rs.60.
