I have a few Silver items that I need to clean coz they tarnished with oxidation. Is there anyway I can clean it without using those metal polish? I have tried Toothpaste ... not bad but still tedious.

I have used ketchup with success. Fill a container with enough to completely cover the bottom. Let silver stand for about 10 min or so. Wipe ketchup off with clean cloth, rinse in cold water and dry immediately. I found this method to be not as tedious as toothpaste. It is the acid in the tomatoes that works to clean the tarnish.

Ketchup should work but it's best suited for brass I think.
