Is this safe for silver plated items?

I would not use this on silver plated items. It actually ruined two pair of my earrings.

Not sure, it works good on silver but does not get a real deep clean on certain items. I may not be leaving it to soak long enough or the chemicals may not be strong enough in my bottle.

I believe it will keep silver from tarnishing since the inside is cloth lining. Also make sure the cabinet is closed when finished with it, and also keep it out of humid and/or hot places such as attics or basements.

I would not use this on all gems. The cleaner is designed for silver flatware and housewares, not jewelry. It could severely damage opals, turquoise and similar soft stones, coated crystals, and pearls. If you need to clean silver with gemstones, use a cleaner designed for jewelry.

Not sure, have just used it on copper. Would be afraid it might hurt silver.

There is a Wrights cream polish made just for silver that I would use instead. It works very well on silver as the copper one works on copper and brass.

Yes they seem to be safe for all the jewelry. I do have to say that I am not that impressed with them. My silver still tarnish almost as fast as it did with out them. I would not buy them again. They were good for keeping earrings in pairs. Hope this helps you out.

This solution should not damage the metal. However, some artificial stones do not tolerate silver cleaning solutions very well. I would suggest that you take the cap from a water bottle or juice bottle, and place a bit of this solution in it. You can then put the tip of the post in the solution, without placing the entire earring in it. Once you are done, just quickly rinse with water, and pat dry. No matter what you use this for, it only needs a few seconds to clean jewelry. Don't walk away. If you leave metal too long in the solution, it with start to strip the shine or sheen from the metal. You don't need more that 45 seconds; usually less than that to fully polish your jewelry, and make it look sparkling new. This is a great product. If you are still concerned about damaging your posts, you can put toothpaste on a paper towel, and rub the posts. It does pretty well at removing most tarnish. Hope this helps.

I do not wear any jewelry while cleaning my silver so I cannot answer that question, sorry.

I used it to cover silver plated costume jewelry. The base was alloyed metal. It worked great!

I would think so as it is coated rather than bare metal. I use it in my crock pot and corningware with no problems at all.

I have not used this on silverware but have used it on rings, I highly recommend more than one coat on your silverware

No. It prevents tarnish as long as you clean the silver or item before storing it in the cloth.

Yes, this can be used on silverware. This cloth contains a chemical so be sure after you clean the silverware to wash it soap and water before you use it.

I don't see how it would harm anything, but I have only used it for sterling and plated silver serving pieces and jewelry. Why not write Hagerty at te address on the jar and ask the experts?

Unless the jeweler's box has some tarnish resistant quality, I would store silver in the bags. I think they do a great job in preventing tarnish. I don't need to clean my silver very often with these bags.

In my opinion, I do not believe it is strong enough to much remove tarnish off of silver. In using with an ultrasonic cleaning machine, I would also recommend checking with that company's ability to use a specific silver cleaning solution that is safe for the machine. This Hagerty product is meant to help clean off skin oils and other grime from waterproof watches, necklaces, bracelets, rings, etc. It is kind of effective with brass or copper tarnish, but not fully as one would expect, so that's where in the future I'd go with specific chemical liquid cleaners safe for silver, etc. The fact is, I've even read that if one does not have ultrasonic cleaning solutions like Hagerty, then to simply use dishwashing liquid mixed in water...and that surely won't remove tarnish.
