Will this work on Sterling Silver Jewelry - especially Sterling that has intricate scroll work and tiny crevices? Would a soft toothbrush work?

I have used this product on sterling silver pieces with intricate designs and was successful the majority of times. Although it sounds great, I would be afraid using a toothbrush. It takes a little longer to clean but I use a soft cloth and Q-tips, sometimes a toothpick is necessary.

I use it on my silver set and trays and it does a great job. I never used it on my silver jewelry, but it sounds like a good idea?

I would use Wright's Silver Polish on sterling. Just my personal preference.

I saw someone demonstrate this product on sterling silver and worked very good. BUT my purpose in buying this was to check for old jewelry - namely - "Bakelite" It will turn a q-tip green if the item is bakelite.

From Wenol website:S I L V E R & G O L D Soft metals can be damaged without proper care. We recommend using only very soft polishing cloths on these materials and only after determining that the material is not silver or g old plating . Silver or gold plating requires extreme care and very gentle touch or the rubbing could remove a portion of the plated surface. Rub WENOL &#63194; into the cloth before polishing and apply gently . NEVER use paper towels to polish silver and gold. Silver should be washed in warm, soapy water after polishing and your silver should be sparkling for months

I've used this on a silver tea pot with engraving and a large silver punch bowl and was quite pleased with the results. I haven't done anything with deep scroll work. As this is a paste it might be tough to bet it out of the deep parts even with a toothbrush.

Yes, it will work. It has jeweler's rouge in it. I would not, however, use a toothbrush on silver, especially silver plate. Maybe a Q-Tip or some cotton wrapped around a toothpick?

From what I can see the Nanolonic Mineral has been locked into the bristles whereas the other one doesn't have that. I have the one with the blue handle, but I think I might try the silver classic to see how it works. It sounds a little more efficient, but have not used it. Good Luck!!

We have always used Hagertys on sterling silver and stainless. It is gentle, but strong enough to do the job!

I'm not sure about that never tried, however, it works on jewelry... so it just might

This works on a number of slick surfaces I have tried, so I think if it works on porcelain/ceramic then it will work on silver which is similarly slick (and silver plates/trays tend to actually be lighter than ceramic). I have used this on a variety of surfaces and been very pleased.

I had experience polishing silver bracelets and it did an excellent job. You just have to be careful not to use too much compound and to select appropriate tool speed. Otherwise, you may damage silver or gold coating (in case jewelery is coated).

I tried it on an old silver spoon. It brightened up the spots that were not overly tarnished, but didn't do much for the parts that were black with tarnish. I may use it for silver that is just a little dull, but it certainly can not compare to real silver polish.

I do not know about using this product for gold jewelry . I just used it for silver items. Sorry for replying so late.

I would imagine a soft bristle toothbrush would be fine....as with all things, test it on an inconspicuous area just to be sure.

Yes you can! I used it on 925 silver and it worked, clean like day 1. Make sure that silver and gold are authentic though, I used steamer on fake Italian silver, I didn't know it was fake until a silver foil coating started to peel, if jewelry is real, this machine is pretty handy!

Not sure on this---but it works very well on silver jewelry. Surely it would. You could take a piece that isn't used much and try a little on the back or a inconspicuous place. If you do it---let me know how it worked out. Sherry in Knox TN

We did not use this product on jewelry. We used it in sterling silver platters, pitchers, candle stick holders, and flatware, so I can't say how it would work on jewelry. It worked great on the sterling.

Yes it will. I have done some steampunk jewelry doing just that and it worked out well. Be sure there is no oil on the bowl of the spoon. wipe it down with acetate. KEN...

I am not sure but I have used it on a silver ring with a red stone and it did not damage it. I also used a toothbrush to clean the ring instead of dipping it in the container. I hope that helps.

Lauren. It would work well on silver and gold. I am not sure on the other three metals but people polish rocks with them so I don't see why not.

Goddard's has excellent cleaners, among them a jewelry cleaner, particularly used for that purpose. Though I did use the silver foam on sterling silver jewelry. You have to clean it well - a very soft toothbrush gets into the crevices if the jewelry is engraved.

I personally use it for silver jewelry but I bet it would do a nice job on silverware too! Cindy
