Default Vibratory tumbler for polishing silverware?

Yeah, and god help you if it's only silver plated!

I have used the hot water-baking soda-aluminum foil to remove tarnish
from silver ware, but it doesn't polish it. Polishing is such a PITA
that it made me wonder if vibratory tumbling would polish silver.
Anybody ever done it? How did it work? What medium did you use?

Thanks,
Bob


Bob,
It might work but it also might take all the edges off the design,
leaving
you with worn down looking pieces. Get thee to a buffing wheel.
