W. J. Hagerty, Black Hagerty 17245 Flatware Silver Dip, fl.Oz, 16.9 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), 16

Quick, effortless shine and gentle on the silver. I have a ton of silver. Family silver, estate sale silver, wedding silver, sterling and plate. This works while you are applying it and requires only wiping, no rubbing to remove tarnish and yield a shine I've spent hours of polishing to achieve in the past. I don't actually dip everything, I drench a soft sponge and wipe the product on the silver, wait a few seconds and wipe it off and rinse with clean water. Wow. A stunning gleaming shine. I do this because it leaves some darkened crevices that indicate age. Dipped antique items sometimes come out so clean they look brand new and somehow almost fake. But this is what they call a "high end" problem. It works almost too well. And so easily. I can clean in 90 minutes what it used to take me 8 hours to do every Easter and Thanksgiving. And no pressure polishing required so no risk of rubbing through the silver on plated items. It is not the most pleasant smelling thing but it isn't bad either. I am buying some for every hostess in my family.

For surface tarnish, this product is quite lovely!! Obviously, one should never expect a dip to erase old tarnish spots/stains (get the Wright's silver cream for that). I threw out the ugly stainless flatware (Who says sterling should only be used for special occasions!? Who are you saving it for and why? Too pretty to not be used every day). I've only used sterling from then on and this makes it so easy for a quick dip between uses to keep it looking shiny beautiful. Be aware that the chemical reaction produces a sulfur scent, but so worth it for the convenience and effectivity.

It works great and fast—removes tarnish quickly. Might want to be careful if your silver has decorative dark areas that are meant to be there.

Easiest way to keep silver flatware polished. I've used this product for years. Note: No longer comes with the little brush in the basket.

This product works well. Only one thing I did not like and that is the tube is so narrow that you must keep a hand on it at all times when using or it would be very easily knocked over. Also, has quite a powerful odor, so plan to use it in a well ventilated area.

This silver cleaner is perfect for cleaning flatware because of the container and basket that allows you to control the dipping and has a small handle. The only way to clean flatware with a liquid silver cleaner formerly was to pour it in a glass container that would hold flatware and allow complete submersion. That is wasteful and inconvenient. The first picture shows a tarnished butter knife, the second after a very quick dip in the bucket of the cleaner bottle, leaving a slightly yellow tint, but removing ALL tarnish, and the third after a cream polish application, which the directions on the Hagerty bottle recommends, leaving the knife bright, clean and free of tarnish, as well as protected by the cream polish. Some reviewers complained about the smell, but this is what liquid silver cleaner smells like. I did have to use my jewelry liquid cleaner for two silver pieces that were too wide for the bottle. Great, effective product.

I have used this product for years and find it very easy and safe to polish my sterling cutlery, Grand Baroque. There is a convenient basket inside the bottle in which the items can be placed, up to four knives or more forks and spoons. Then you just dip the basket into the liquid and leave it for a few seconds and then take the items out and wash them . Polishing done with no messy creams or sponges.

Amazing how quickly it polishes silver jewelry or silver flatware
