He also said that commercial silver polishes do remove a small amount of silver along with the tarnish every time you use them.

(use 1/2 a teaspoon for a bowl to 5 teaspoons for a kitchen sink) Boil water, put your silver item/s into bowl, then pour the water into bowl, don't pour directly onto your silver. (water must be still boiling as you pour it in this is crucial for this method to work well) The oxidization that is on your silver will transfer to the tin foil. This way you will not ware your silver away as you do when useing silvo or toothpaste etc. Depending on the size of your silver item/s, use kitchen sink or bowl, (stanless steel bowl works the best) line the bottom with genuine tin foil, get some baking soda and mix into a past.
