<p>[QUOTE=&quot;scoutshouse, post: 128042, member: 267&quot;]Thank you both for not freaking <i>out</i> at the mention of oven cleaner. It really does work on stainless jewelry grime, and on lower grades of silver - Alpaca or German Silver, which are more porous, are different animals.</p><p><br /></p><p>There&#039;s a difference between grime and patina - I would hate to destroy original patina on any object...&nbsp; but an agent like <b>non-fuming</b> oven cleaner can be very effective in breaking down or emulsifying grime, which basically a build-up of human oils, dirt and skin cells.</p><p><br /></p><p>If there&#039;s a natural or home-made way to make an emulsifier, I&#039;m all for that!!!!</p><p><br /></p><p>In my own life: I have to wonder about people who are soooooooooo sensitive to chemicals, but think using an inoperative dishwasher as a dish rack is safe, hygienic and genius !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</p><p><br /></p><p>but that&#039;s just me.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
