How do I clean the gunk out of silver metal costume bracelet?

Posted on September 21st, 2009 by admin

It’s a wide cuff bracelet of hammered silver colored metal.

I’ve only worn it 3 times then it sat in a drawer. There’s a film of gunky stuff that makes it dull and it doesn’t go away by wiping wit a dry or damp kleenex.

What can I use to clean it with, please? It’s not real silver, just costume jewelry. Thanks.

I use toothpaste to clean jewelry (even my wedding rings) Makes it shiny. Just give it a good scrub with toothpaste and old toothbrush.
It’s contact with your skin oils that are making it oxidize/darken like that. Just clean it after you take it off at night every time you wear it.
