How are we cleaning our silver jewelry

I'm familiar with acetone for removing organics.

I did the foil and salt method for tarnish and it leaves stuff hazy and I hate it.

I got Wrights by Weiman and it seems alright. Any major red flags to know about?

What do you use and what do you think is best?

    I like natural patina but E-Zest or ultrasonic cleaner.

    Ultrasonic removes tarnish? Does it require a special solution or something?

    I think I read something about baking soda

    I've been using an ultrasonic cleaner with great results for silver jewelry. You don't need any special solution, just water with a tiny bit of mild dish soap. Speaking of quality, I checked how to judge ruby quality when shopping for gemstones, and it really helped me make informed decisions. Considering this info may be useful when looking for high-quality cleaning equipment, too.
