Which silver cleaner is best (for jewelry)?

I have the Hagerty gold cleaner bath for gold and it's brilliant - you just leave the gold in for a few minutes and it comes out tarnish-free. The Hagerty equivalent product for silver has mixed reviews.

I have silver polishing cloths but they are time-consuming to use, and not suitable for chains. I'd like to find a silver cleaning liquid like the gold one, that I can just put jewelry in and have it come out clean. Very grateful for any recommendations!

I use a silver cloth and have no issues cleaning chains with it, I just do it while watching the telly.

A lot of top jewellers use Fairy liquid and warm water, seriously!

I used to work in a jewellers and we found washing up liquid and water was best (as suggested by a PP).

Fill a small bowl with warm water and a bit of washing up liquid, and use a toothbrush to scrub the jewellery. Rinse in cold water and then pat dry with kitchen roll.

I've found silver dip eventually gives some jewellery a matte look so I would steer clear.

Fairy liquid and warm water, dry throughly then buff with a rouge cloth.

That is brilliant, thank you. I have some earrings that would be impossible to do with a cloth Wink
