Easy way to remove tarnish and brighten up a silver instrument. Here is a demonstration of cleaning up a heavily tarnished, almost black, silver plated horn. Simple process using baking soda, salt, aluminium foil, and hot water.

I followed your instructions and soaked a gold plated Bach bugle that was made for the US Army, and within 30 minutes the dark tarnished spots were gone! Thank you

I'm going to use this on my horn. Haven't played consistently for a few years and am now ready to get back to work.

Thanks so much for your demo looks great. I will try your process by this week-end on my silver Besson student trumpet. Without using it for a while I would to clean before to restart playing. Take care. Cheers from France

This is outrageous. So many folks who only understand music trying to handle a chemical reaction issue. Low and behold, a basic understanding of chemistry accomplishes so much more impressive. Just awesome, man.

How about changing to a new aluminum foil

Great video, thanks! Do you know any way to remove tarnish from gold plated trumpets?

Actual gold? Not that I know of. If you mean brass (gold color) then brass polish will do the trick.

After cleaning a good buff and polish is what u need for a nice finish

Do you have any idea what the ratios would be for a trombone in a bathtub? I own an antique silver Conn valve bone.

Were you able to figure out the ratios? Im also trying to fix my trombone

It would have been better and faster if you had used boiling water a 1/2cup or 1 cup of baking soda , and salt.

Are you a scientist ?

Well, yes I do have a PhD, but I'm not a chemist. (Although I did study enough chemistry to comprehend ion exchange at a basic level).
