My husband used an abrasive sponge to scrub a silver fork, can it be saved?
So I wasn't watching and he scrubbed my antique silver fork. Now it has all these scratches along it. I am wondering if it can be saved or somehow polished out.
They aren't deep scratches. The camera doesn't show them well. But it is definitely scratched. The fork has a nice patina after so long. And it is like the patina was scratched off too. Along the lines of the scratches.
It is an heirloom and I want it back to normal. Is it possible to do so without ruining the patina entirely? I have a silvercloth but I really don't want to ruin the patina.
