What is the process after using this to polish silverware ? Do you have to wash after polishing since we will be eating with them ?

Contains Sodium Carbonate. Avoid contact with eyes and prolonged contact with skin. This seems to me more like a product for show pieces than for pieces that will be used. If you polish them, then you wash them, they will turn faster. If you don't mind the work, then this product does an amazing job!!

I personally have only used it for jewelry, but i would recommend washing the silverware after polishing if you plan to eat with them.

Yes - I always wash my silver cutlery (flatware) and dishes with soap and water after polishing them. Just use Palmolive, Fairy or any other regular kitchen detergent. Patricia

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.

Hello Ms. Scruggs, Actually, I never put them in the dishwasher, always washed them by hand with a soft scrubber immediately after I cooked with them. For a set of stainless steel pots, I love their performance, quality and style. I like to use a metal cleaner to keep the copper bright. Best not to use high heat, okay on medium because the copper conducts well. Enjoy!

Wow, sorry for the delayed response. We wash ours in the dishwasher on the top rack or in the silverware tray now and then. Mostly I just wash them by hand though.

I thought the package said to hand wash but maybe I'm just projecting because my husband has ruined so many of my pans and cookie sheets.They wash up very quickly with there wonderful finish. Hope this helps.

Best to hand-wash them, and not to scrub the nonstick surface with anything abrasive. Unfortunately, the coating will wear out eventually, but with care, it should last for years.

Pewter is a soft metal, so putting it in the dishwasher can make it thin out and become brittle and change color. Then it becomes hard to polish this cute daisy pattern 'till it shines. I would recommend just hand washing them to be on the safe side.

Not yet, but haven't left them in the washer to dry, I towel dry my ss flatware, either after hand washing and dishwasher, depends too on the chemicals in your cleaners too, so to be safe I hand dry and put away.

They don't have a finish. They are a bit rough, so I sanded them down with high grit sandpaper and seasoned them with canola oil. It gives them a softer finish. I only wash and dry them by hand. I never put them in the dishwasher. Hope this helps.

A better method of cleaning tarnished silver, involves dissolving baking soda in hot boiling water, then immersing a sheet of aluminium foil into the heated mixture and then dipping tarnished silverware into solution making sure it makes contact with the foil. Tarnish should vanish immediately. No ultrasonic cleaner necessary. No buffing or abrasives needed. Just set it and forget it. Its that easy! LOL

Mine actually rusted after their first trip through the dishwasher. None of my other silverware have experienced any rust issues (not even the cheap stuff), I guess I have just gotten a faulty set.

Since I would never even think of putting mine in the dishwasher, I haven't had that problem. If I had done that, I might try baking soda or Bartender's Friend to see if either would remove any of the discoloration. Both are very fine abrasives which I find work well on my stainless steel sink. Also, a metal polish called MAAS works well on lots of metals, including sterling silver as well as stainless steel. Good luck.

We just hand wash them with dish soap and water. We have not had any issues with tarnishing, and have had some for several years!

While they are wrapped, you don't need to polish them. When you unwrap and use them, you might want to give them a quick wash and buff before you put them away again.

I have not washed mine, but I do have other chicago metallic pans and have on occasion put them in the dishwasher. I too have a husband who insists everything should go in the dishwasher and he has ruined many things. These pans, however, I think will be fine and as stated by others, their pans do wash up beautifully by hand. I bought these pans for my daughters also, and one of them puts everything in the dishwasher. They are well worth the money.

Yes. We put them in the dishwasher. Careful to keep them from touching other silverware.

I find it best to handwash it with mild soapy water. I wouldn't want the harsh dishwasher soap to rub off the details!
