Maintenance of silver chopsticks
The maintenance of silver chopsticks can refer to the maintenance method of silver ornaments, and silver tableware is generally not suitable for electroplating. One is to lose the true color of silver, and the other is to consider food hygiene.

Long-term use of silver tableware will not have adverse effects on the body, so don't worry about poisoning.

Silver is chemically active, so it will react with sulfur dioxide in the air to produce black silver sulfide. When the surface of silver ornaments is oxidized to black, the following maintenance methods can be adopted to restore the beautiful luster of silver ornaments.

1. You can add baking soda powder to clean water and then clean it.

2. Wipe with silver cloth and silver paste [it should be available in general jewelry stores. It is particularly important to point out that silver cloth contains special potions and cannot be washed with water].

3. Wipe the ornaments with a soft cloth dipped in some toothpaste, then wash them with clear water and wipe them with cotton cloth. (Toothpaste works well. )

4. Soak the silver in water, then wash it with clear water, wipe it with cotton cloth and keep it dry. However, it is suggested that silver washing water should be used as little as possible, because silver washing water is a chemical product. Using the corrosiveness of silver washing water to clean silver ornaments will cause harm to silver ornaments for a long time.

When not in use, it is sealed with sealed plastic bags to reduce contact with air, which can slow down blackening.

Everyone who owns silver jewelry has this experience: after not wearing it for a while, it is easy to oxidize and lose its luster. After this happens, you can take it to a jewelry store for cleaning and polishing, and the silver jewelry will look brand-new; If the oxidation is not serious, you can also take care of it at home: the easiest way is to let toothpaste scrub the surface of jewelry; There is a silver polishing cloth on the market, which can easily polish silver ornaments, but only for silver ornaments with certain hardness and smoothness; If it is a soft necklace or carved jewelry, it is best to soak it in silver jewelry cleaning solution.

Finally, remind everyone that it is best to avoid contact with seawater and hot springs. If you don't wear it, you can put it in a container that is isolated from the air, such as a velvet bag or a jewelry box, which will make your silver jewelry as new!

Many people like silver ornaments, but they don't know how to maintain them. They even think that silver ornaments are difficult to maintain, which is not the case. The chemical properties of silver are not as stable as platinum and gold, and it is often oxidized to black or yellow by water or other chemicals in the air and lost.

Gloss, after understanding this characteristic, we only need to spend a little thought in our daily life to make the silver ornaments we wear.

It is as durable as new.

When wearing silver jewelry, don't wear other precious metal jewelry at the same time to avoid collision, deformation or wear. Keep the silver ornaments dry, don't swim in them, and don't go near hot springs and seawater. After each wear, you can gently wipe the surface with cotton cloth or paper towel to remove moisture and dirt, and then put it in a sealed bag to avoid contact with air.

The best way to maintain silver jewelry is to wear it every day, because human oil can produce a natural and moist luster. Contains exquisite three-dimensional silver ornaments made into sculptures to avoid deliberate polishing.

If you find signs of yellowing of the silver ornaments, you should first clean up the fine seams of the silver ornaments with a small jewelry brush, and then gently wipe the surface with a silver cloth.

Can restore the original silvery white and brightness of silver jewelry. I suggest that if you use a silver swab, you can restore about 80% silvery white.

In addition, there is no need to use silver lotion and silver washing water, because these products are corrosive to some extent and have been used in silver ornaments.

The product will turn yellow more easily afterwards. Silver wipes contain silver maintenance ingredients and cannot be washed. If you don't handle and collect the silver jewelry after wearing it, it is very likely that the silver jewelry will turn black. At this time, you should use a small jewelry brush to clean the fine seams of jewelry, then drop a drop of silver emulsion on the paper towel to wipe off the black oxide on the surface of jewelry, and then use a silver cloth to restore the original brightness of jewelry. After that, you should remember to do the daily general maintenance to prevent the silver ornaments from turning black again. It is difficult to rub the silver ornaments white after many times of blackening.

The above are some basic precautions for importing silver wipes from Britain. Here, the maintenance methods of electroplated silver jewelry and unplated silver jewelry are introduced in detail:

First of all, it is necessary to distinguish whether there is electroplating; (Silver ornaments are generally divided into electroplating and electroless plating)

Electroplated silver jewelry: that is, the inner layer is pure silver, and the surface is being treated with current; Electroplating is generally divided into electrogold and platinum; The way to identify electroplating is that its surface luster is brighter than pure silver, just like a mirror, with good reflection effect and less.

Easy to oxidize (oxidation time depends on plating thickness).

Electroless silver jewelry: easy to lose luster due to vulcanization. The sulfur dioxide in the air reacts with silver to form a layer of silver sulfide on the silver ornaments, which is the same as the apple will slowly turn black after being cut. ).

The simple treatment of electroplating silver ornaments is as follows:

1. Go to the nearby Chinese medicine store or drugstore to buy a pack of alum first;

2. Then use the silver jewelry you wear as; The proportion of boiling water (water must be boiled);

3. Take out the silver ornaments and put them in cold water. Use a soft brush (such as a toothbrush) dipped in toothpaste or laundry detergent or salad for cleaning.

4. Blow dry with a hair dryer, and then wipe with suede, as bright as new;

The types of electroplated silver jewelry that can be processed above are A. Necklace (thickness is acceptable)/B. Juzi/C. Ring (with or without gems)/D. Handmade. Bracelet (thick or thin)/D. Silver ornaments inlaid with plastic and the like.

The simple treatment of electroless silver jewelry is as follows:

(Remarks: Silver jewelry with restrictions in the following methods: a. Silver jewelry inlaid with plastic or the like/b. Vulcanization (Vulcanization: when buying silver jewelry, there is a black part on the silver jewelry, and if there is a totem pattern, there is a black inscription).

1. Bake the silver jewelry with fire (enough lighters) to destroy its surface structure, and the baking time depends on the size and thickness of the silver jewelry.

Commonly known as: fire);

2. Cool and cook in alum water. After boiling, take out the silver jewelry, put it in cold water and dip it with a soft brush (such as a toothbrush).

Wash toothpaste or laundry detergent, milk or salad;

3. Blow dry with a hair dryer, and finally polish with silver cloth or silver powder, showing the true color of pure silver;

When dealing with the above-mentioned electroless silver jewelry, we should pay attention to the following points:

1. A thin necklace or a thin silver ornament cannot stay in the same position for too long when it is "over-fired";

2. After the silver jewelry and the gem are "burned" together, they should not be directly immersed in cold water, so they must wait for it to cool naturally, otherwise the gem will easily deteriorate.

Fragmentation;

3. Fine silver ornaments can be cleaned with an iron brush, and the effect is better (only fine silver ornaments can be cleaned with an iron brush);

4. Daily maintenance can be wiped with silver cloth or silver powder. If your jewelry can no longer be polished with silver cloth or silver powder,

You can use the above method (if you can't wipe it with silver cloth or silver powder, it means that you have been maintaining it for too long! ) Never use it.

Washing silver water or rubbing silver paste is only a way to temporarily brighten jewelry with chemical liquid, which is harmful to human body, and

The effect is worse every time, and the damage of silver ornaments is the same as peeling apples;

The method we provide is to teach you to keep the integrity of this apple in the most natural way.

In addition, there is a little trick to brighten the silver ornaments, which is put forward here for your reference: if you want to brighten the newly bought silver ornaments and avoid blackening, you can apply a thin layer of transparent nail polish on their surfaces, and then apply it again every ten days. If you want to remove nail polish, you can soak it in banana oil and then wash it with water.
