Successful With Filigree
Dear Aunt Daisy, A few weeks ago I had occasion to write to you for a method of cleaning silver filigree. In your reply to my request you sent several methods of cleaning silver lamé. On experimenting I have found that the method of methylated spirits and whiting has proved a wonderful success and I have no hesitation in telling you to advise the use of this mixture to anyone who may have
similar problem
Otahuhu
Many thanks. This was the method: Make a paste of methylated spirits and whiting, and dab all over the tarnished
parts, using a soft rag. Do not have paste too wet. When dry, brush off, and hang outside till smell of methylated spirits disappears,
