NushineNushine Silver Plating Solution 100ml - permanently plate PURE SILVER onto worn silver, brass, copper and bronze (eco friendly formula)

Does work but takes a lot of applications to get a decent result. Probably wouldn't buy again.

Wanted to re-plate my old copper-plated candle sticks, which showed heavy 'bleeding'. However, was not sure about the effect so tried it on a brass-plated server first. After a lot of elbow grease and using abt. 1/3rd of the bottle, nothing had happened, also not on a brass sugar spoon, very disappointing! Then decided to put some of the solution on and old copper penny, and that worked! Felt more confident to use it on my candlesticks then, but tried the bobeche first, which came up very nicely. Worked my way round both candlesticks and they look absolutely beautiful again. Very pleased with the result, so a big thank you to Nushine!!First pic shows the original colour, 2nd pic is half the foot done, 3rd pic is after treating it completely. They are ready for next Christmas!Tip off to prevent over-polishing silver/plate items: if you don't use your plated silver/silver much, after cleaning/polishing then put items in a zip bag, push the air out and close the bag. Items will not turn black for a long time and is ready for use. That's what I do with my candlesticks.

I wasn't sure this would really work and was very pleasantly surprised when it did. I'm a bit of a magpie and have loads of cheap shiny glass tennis bracelets and rings where the silver plating has worn off and the base metal below was showing through. I followed the instructions, cleaned everything with a toothbrush and hot soapy water, dried it and then rubbed on the grey liquid from the well shaken bottle. I'd thought it would take a lot of rubbing but I just applied a thick coating, wandered off to do other stuff, and when I returned to rub the items they'd all turned silver again. Like magic. It even gave a whole new lease of life to a ring my mum bought in the 1960s where nearly all the silver plating had worn away. That too is shiny and silver looking. Don't know how long the new coating will last, but it was a doddle to do so I don't mind having to repeat the process.

I have used this on a Victorian EPNS teapot which was showing signs of the bronz coloured base metal over a small area. This is hard work! I lost count of the number of coatings - at least ten, I think. That is not quite as bad as it sounds, since 'the next coating can follow the last' in quite quick succession. I no longer see the bronz, but the 'replated' area still does not shine to match the neighbouring highly polished surfaces. See the slightly 'shaded' area near bottom right on the photo. I shall have another 'go' tomorrow. The small bottle should actually last a long time unless you are trying to replace an entire tea service - although perhaps I will empty it after the 150'th application on this wretched teapot!

I thought I'd try this stuff before sending my sentimentally valuable bracelet somewhere to be tree-plated. So I patiently applied, rubbed and buffed a full 100ml bottle onto a worn silver plated bracelet over the course of various evenings. I persevered because it appeared to be making some difference after the first few applications. In my opinion, the bracelet actually looked worse by the time I'd finished. With a dark border having appeared between the remaining silver plate and the underlying alloy. I'd hoped the buffing would slowly turn the darker part shiny.Sally not. Guess you get what you pay for. Don't waste your money and just buy a silver cloth to polish whatever silver plate is left on your items. Don't expect any new silver to magically appear.

To say I'm well impress with this product is an understatement, I bought it after one of my favourite earrings was left in a Milton solution and turned black.In the first few minutes of using the product I thought it wasn't going to work, the instructions do say it only works on certains metals and I don't know what the earrings are made of.However it started coming through and I soon had an earring nearly as shiny as its twin (see pics, left is the work in progress when I realised it seemed to be working. It was way worse to start with. Right is with the other earring that wasn't tarnished)It was fairly easy to use, took about 45 minutes to get from black to shiny silver, and not as messy as I feared. I used vinyl gloves and the product didn't seem to stick to them, so that was great to not smear it all over the place.Highly recommend!

I used this product to plate a copper ring I made few years ago. I prepared the surface by cleaning with acetone followed by rubbing with steel wool. When I applied the solution the ring surface turned black but after cleaning with soft cloth a nice silver color was obtained.

I found out the hard way that gloves should definitely be used. The black takes about a week to come off your skin.Make sure you shake the bottle frequently whilst usingPlease note that this silver solution is not permanent - it does work at first but soon wears off
