simichrome and other silver polish recommendations

[silverdollarbill]

Hello Everyone,

I bought some simicrhrome based on a diggummup post (thx diggummup) and it works great. I was bored and polished up some "plated mistakes" I made early on. This may be obvious to everyone else, but polished they look really good.

So, I think simichrome is great for things people will not be eating with/out off. However, I am a little hesitant to use it on the utensils my kids eat off of. I did do the baking soda/aluminum foil thing. It helped but nothing like simichrome.

Questions for you all:
- are things polished with simicrhome safe to eat off of? (I a little cautious with this type of thing)
- if there a silver polish that does the trick that is non-toxic or at least light on the chemicals

thx,
bill

Thanks for the replies. I had read the faq, but was just concerned by how effective it is and the smell. Thought maybe just soap and water may leave residue. Seems like its a commonly used product so probably not much to worry about.
