 Re: Treatment for dirty and oxidised keywork

I frequently use this method for silver plated keys and silver flute bodies. I never considered it for nickel plate. It is less toxic than silver dips and less abrasive than silver polish. For heavily tarnished silver I sometimes do it twice. I'm not a chemist but I believe it reverses the oxidation process. There is sometimes a faint sulfur smell in the air. It is an exothermic reaction so it is very quick.
