<p>[QUOTE="gregsglass, post: 56716, member: 78"]Hi Terry,</p><p> Most everything you use to clean pewter will cause color change. I would do the cheap olive oil soak for a week or so. If you want a fast clean use a good silver polish and do the whole thing. After a while it will start to darken a bit. Be sure to really wash it in hot soapy water first. If you get a bit of grit remaining it will scratch the hell out of the pewter. Also use a very soft clean cloth, no scrubbies or anything.</p><p>greg[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
