HSWALSH Original Silver Plating Solution 150ml Metals with Real Silver (sheffco) - SF01A

Bought this product and noted some unsatisfied comments but an overall good rating. It worked perfectly for me. A plated statue that was burnished back to base brass in many places was immediately brought back to a perfect silver finish. A large plated tea tray again restored to a 'good' finish but will require a couple of more coats I think. It is quite likely that the product may work better on some surfaces than others. My experience is that it does a great job.

Spend time using this product and you will notice a nice difference. Just don't expect a miracle, but a good finish.

I used this product to restore a silver plated pendant when the metal underneath started to show through. I was a bit doubtful but in 5 minutes it was beautifully silver again! It all happened so fast I couldn't quite believe my eyes and, of course, I don't know how durable it will be but it would be very easy to repeat - and there's loads of the product left if required.

You can see the results in the pictures. First picture is 2 solid silver vases one before cleaning, one after cleaning.second picture is a silver plated tea pot before, third picture is same teapot after treatment.I don't know about the chemistry involved in this product but it certainly works. I woukd definately say use this on your silver or silver plate. The results speak for them selves. I will use it again. You might think it's expensive but is definitely worth it.

Not great as requires many coats. Have almost used all and no sign of replating.

I used the silver solution on several silver plated items. It worked really well on anything which had a yellow metal base, taking it back to silver. It transformed some pieces making them look great as it covered the worn silver plate very well. It changed their colour from yellowy back to silver so I was very happy with thisBut on a silver plated tray with a copper base layer it made it worse. After using it a lot more of the copper shows through and it marks easily when used now. See photos.You need to wear gloves - I didn't and it stained my fingers for several weeks.Customer service was really poor - I contacted them to ask what to do about the ruined silver plated tray and heard nothing at all from them.I definitely recommend for using on silver plate if your items have a yellow metal base like brass BUT Don't use it on anything with a copper (brown) base metal.

Best result was a silver plated tray where the silver had worn thin showing copper beneath. This is now silver again after 4 or 5 applications. Not totally undetectable, maybe a few more applications will sort that. Is fast and easy to use. It is not a paint. will not harm existing already silvered areas. Area it is working on goes dark on application but buffs to silver shine.

It is very important to thoroughly clean and de-grease the item to be plated - any trace of polish will prevent the product from doing its job. I've seen several videos where the item was polished, so the solution did not work; but if acetone had been used to clean the item, it would have been successful.I've used it on various metals (brass, copper, steel) and it works fine - usually needing a few applications.
