How to remove silver tarnish 1). - the conversion of the tarnish back to silver does not depend on whether the dissolved salt is baking soda, kosher salt, washing soda, water softening salts, or TSP (tri-sodium phosphate) -- you can use anything that will conduct electricity in place of the baking soda. 2). - all chemical reactions occur much faster at high temperatures. 3). - the word cleaning is not precise. The reaction we are talking about is not about removing ground in finger oils and dirt, but about electrochemically converting silver tarnish back to silver -- yet removing that oil & dirt is necessary, especially on decades-old quarters; baking soda or kosher salt in cool water isn't a good detergent :-)

The formation of patina is necessary in applications such as copper roofing, and outdoor copper, bronze, and brass statues and fittings. Patina is the name given to tarnish on copper based metals.
