In Response To: Re: re-silvering brass clock dial (James Schooley)

Thanks for the advice James. The chemical was applied using a damp piece of cotton wool. I used distilled water to dampen. The finish should not be a mirror finish like electro plating, but there should be a light reflecting sheen on the silver which I cannot obtain. I have asked the silvering kit supplier for their advice.

Geoff.
