Amazing stuff! I have found more us e s for this metal polish cream than I thought possible. I like rummage sales, and you never know what yoight come across. One time I found a cute little hand painted pomade jar, but the hand formed metal lid was horrible...a metal of some kind I still don't know what metal it is.
But I tried cleaning up the stains and dark gray ugly color of the lid using this metal polish cream and a soft cloth. The lid was a dull gun metal gray colour. It's not silver or even silver plated, but to my utter amazement, this product resulted in turning the jar lid into one with a mirror finish effect with a great deal of luster.
It may not be silver, but it sure looks as if it could be some kind of precious metal in content. This metal polish cream made the jar lid look brand new. Although it is a non-abrasive cream, this product removed all signs of wear on the jar lid. I was thoroughly amazed at the before and after difference.
How a "cream" can possibly polish out even the worst of scratches in metal is something I still can't comprehend, but it just that without using much "elbow grease" at all.
One caveat....well, maybe two, actually. Try to only use this stuff in a well-ventilated space as this stuff stinks to high heaven...and the door does longer a bit. I found just using paper towels was sufficient to produce the mirror-finish I achieved...and the smell goes out along with the used paper towels. Also, I'm not sure how caustic this cream is, so best not to use it around children or anyone with respiratory issues. But I didn't wear any gloves or such when using this cream, and it didn't burn my skin or anything -- it just smells horribly in use.
I tried it on silver and silver plated items, and it does retard tarnish a great deal longer than anything else I've ever used. I did also try using it to polish crystal and glass goods, but it won't work on those items.
I'm not sure what it is made of, but it must remove some of the metal content of what you are polishing. Not recommended for use on items with a very thin silver plated surface as it will tend to remove a thin, very thin outer silver layer. All the same, I discovered on some thinly silver plated items, if the base metal under the silver plating is also silver in colour, it will polish the base metal to a brilliant shine too, so unless you are doing a real up-close examination of the polished piece, it's difficult to tell where any thin silver plating has been reduced to nothing but the silver coloured base metal. In other words, if I he underlying base metal has copper in it, this won't work out very well. But it does just fine on items where the base metal is closer to being silver or grayish; making a better match in the end result should the silver plate be entirely polished away.
---and it does help polish up metal stove tops as w well. Just remember need for ventilation when working with this product. Very PUNGENT stuff to say the least. Polishing chrome? Nothing Better!

Great polishing cream!
Wow! I've used a lot of different polishing products like Cape Cod Cloths and Brasso and Barkeepers Friend, but this cream puts a mirror-like shine on easily. It took even fine swirls off stainless steel. Better than expected.
