Achieving the Perfect Shine: How to Use Goddard's Long Term Silver Polish

The beauty of Goddard's Silver Polish is in its efficacy and ease of use. For obvious reasons, we have a well-established silver care routine. Here's a step-by-step guide to getting that perfect shine:

1. Preparation: Begin by ensuring the silver item is dust-free. Use a soft cloth to gently wipe it.

2. Polishing: Once you've shaken your bottle of Goddard's Silver Polish, apply a small amount to a cloth, and then gently rub the silver in circular motions.

3. Buffing: Allow the polish to dry, then use a fresh section of the cloth to buff the silver, bringing out its radiant shine.

With the task completed, take a step back and enjoy the fruits of your labor. Your silver will appear as though it's fresh from the craftsman's workshop! Learn more about 925 silver care here.

Our Bonus Tips

For hard-to-reach areas, apply a small amount of polish to a cotton bud and wipe off the excess before addressing the tarnished area.

For intricate pieces or jewellery with crevices, rub the solution into the cloth or cotton bud before polishing to prevent buildup. Additionally, you may need to rinse off the polish, but remember to dry the item immediately afterward!

For minor tarnishing, use a cotton wool bud dipped in polish. After a thorough but gentle rub, wipe it down with a silver polishing cloth (FYI, every Silverly order includes a special silver cleaning cloth, not just gift wrap!).

For more prominent tarnishing or very old jewellery, we employ a three-step approach:

1. First, we place the silver item in a silver dip. The immersion time varies based on the tarnish's severity – it can range from mere seconds to a little longer.

2. Once removed and visually inspected for cleanliness, we apply the Long Term Silver Polish using a silver cloth, focusing on the previously tarnished areas.

3. A final buff with a silver polishing cloth leaves the piece looking pristine.✨

Important to note: If your silver jewellery features intentional black oxidized designs, refrain from using the silver dip, as it will remove these design elements. Instead, take care to polish around the oxidized areas.
