will this keep silver from turning black in just a day or two after soldering

Hi yarddog:) I don't really understand the question... But I will tell you that the pickle is to be heated in a small crockpot and right after soldering you drop your silver inside the mixer. It removes all of the copper tat has risen to the top of the silver.. As for the copper turning black which is usually oxidation.. You can remove that by buffing or using super fine steel wool 00. I don't know if that answers your question? I am a novice:)

I haven't used my soldering iron this year though from what I remember it was within 5 min. I was soldering solar cells and the variable temp was important. I'm happy with it. Michael SedonaCreations.com

A low wattage iron (10-15 Watts) might require so long to heat the solder to a fluid state, that you damage circuitry or material bonds. Use a good temperature controlled device. With a 700 to 750°F setting (approx) damage should be minimal.

No. It will not cover the black spots on your silver. It is more like a polish.

From the time it is switched on to the first moment that solder will melt is usually about 5 minutes from my experience.

I bought silver an it went completely dark purple for only leaving it in for 20 mins but it lasted over a month

unless the tin is rather oxidized, the filler will likely be a bit darker and certainly grey

Good morning, Mark. Like any lead-free solder it will join 2 pieces of metal like aluminum. However, it will depend on the usage and the weight of the pieces to be joined.

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.

If it's not too tarnished, yes. If it's really black, like one piece of mine was, it will work but my muscles feel it and I didn't get all of the tarnish. I used a toothbrush and a scotch scrubbie to get into it, but it worked mostly. Much easier to just wash all the silver twice a year if you really don't use it. Worst case, I think the silver cleaner is Dip It. MUCH easier to use.If you do use it, put it on, leave it for a minute or two, then scrub at the tarnish. I found that worked better, but if the silver is really tarnished, buy the silver cleaner.

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 use Barkeepers Friend on the entire pan every 2nd or 3rd use, and it has so far always turned the copper back to its original color/patina. High heat has caused my copper to turn light but the BF restores it every time.

The black stuff is oxide developed from the silver, it is not harmful, you could pour it through a coffee filter if desired.

I am not sure. If the metal is black in color in some cases the color will fade to reveal the actual metal color. The cleaning works instantly.

If it is brass it will darken the piece, solution has to be warm 140 degrees, and it should only take a few seconds to see a change

lol, no worries, my experience is that when ever my silver is dirty I have use it and it hasn't harmed any of my silver items. The best answer I can tell you is that it hasn't harmed my silver items and Ive use it a lot but if you call a jewelry store you can ask the professional. I can only share my experience. Hope this helps bro.

I can't tell you what wattage soldering iron but I can say that almost all soldering irons work with this stuff. It does not really require all that high of a temperature. If your iron will handle conventional solders, it will work fine with this. I understand it is not a lot of silver involved here even though it is called silver solder.
