After cleaning items, place them in a container with "silver tarnish fabric" available at Amazon, Joann's, etc. This special fabric is expensive, but keeps the silver from tarnishing. It is actually, "anti-tarnish" fabric. I have a glass fronted display cabinet and placed a layer this special fabric in the bottom. Silver in this cabinet has not tarnished in years and I get to enjoy seeing it everyday.

Would using a ceramic dish or plastic dish work as well as a glass baking dish? I’m assuming one needs to just stay away from anything metal that could get stained.

Wow! I am impressed! Every Christmas my beautiful silverware, as well as many other pieces, needs to be cleaned. At 70+ this is an arduous task. Your 'tip' was spot on and I finished up in record time. Great tip. Thank you so much!

In reply to Kathy M Cadiou. I don't think I would chance it. I don't "think" it would transfer to the tub, but I know I have some odd "stains" in my fiberglass laundry tub that are next to impossible to get out. For some larger pieces I have just dipped one end in for a bit, then the other end and then each side until I had finally gotten all the areas. And if the tray is extra large you may be able to get enough of the liquid to set on the top of the tray by laying it flat, as long as it has a lip to it.

In reply to Darlene. You could put them in a pail. I did a small teapot in a roasting pan last week. It wasn't fully submerged so I turned it over to do the other half after a few minutes.

Hi Pam: FYI, you can also use Arm and Hammer Washing Soda which is less abrasive that using the salt. You just put in the boiling water with the aluminum foil. As I have big pieces which I put in my kitchen sink I just dump in the washing soda, but I suppose a few tablespoons would work in a small pan. Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!

Hi Pam: You can also use Arm n Hammer Washing Soda, that way you don't have to use salt on your old silver. Just put it in the boiling water with the aluminum foil. Happy Thanksgiving.
