awesome on cleaning silver, no crusty polish residue, I find works best if you don't rinse but just buff, stays polished longer, but only really works like that on pieces you're not using for food. it's also good on brass, copper, stainless, etc. Tin includes 12 polishing cloths, a buffing cloth and a pair of gloves. also if the rags dry out you can add mineral oil and revive them, all this on the can.
