Daily Wire Tip Jan. 24: Anti-Tarnish Paper
Daily Wire Jewelry Making Tip
January 24, 2010
Question:
I do know of some easy ways to clean copper safely. But my question is – Will the papers we use for silver also keep copper shiny when we are not wearing it?
Answer:
Anti-tarnish paper works because it contains materials that neutralize common gases in our atmosphere that cause corrosion on metals like silver, nickel, gold, copper, bronze, tin and brass. Most of these special, paper products will work for a minimum of 6 months before they need to be replaced.

Hi Camel, I’ve passed this along to the inventory clerk. Have you already asked them to let you know when it becomes available? If not, please do so where the page says ‘Notify me when stock arrives’ http://wire-sculpture.com/nickel-silver-wire/18_Gauge_Round_Dead_Soft_Nickel_Silver_Wire_50_ft_Coil-375-786.html
