Excellent Value May 29, 2010 Robo21 (Southern California) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
My 14k gold bracelet was looking a little dull. I have polished it in the past using my Dremel tool/polishing wheel and jeweler's rouge which did an excellent job. This cloth works almost as well for restoring a mirror like shine. For all but scratches this cloth does a fine job of restoring the luster. Note: I've only used this cloth on a 14k gold curb link bracelet.
Pros and Cons January 19, 2010 Y. Yang (CT, USA) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I have only used this cloth to clean my silver jewelry (mostly necklaces and pendants).
Pro:
-cleans better than the baking soda/hot water method. Actually made my jewelry SHINE instead of just appearing silver-white.
Cons:
-Residue from the cloth gets on the hands (I'm not talking about tarnish). I assume the feeling is from whatever they treated the cloth to make it take off tarnish. But still, I feel the need to wash my hands with ample soap after every cleaning.
-Polishing the detailing and crevices on pendants requires dedication and dexterity. Small fingers or creative use of fingernails also help.
-doesn't clean delicate chains as well as I like, since the method I use is by pulling my silver chains against the cloth. Just feels like I'll break the chain if I pull too hard. However, box chains and snake chains can definitely survived this method of cleaning.
Other:
-While the cloth is effective in getting rid of tarnish, out of curiosity, I tested it with new silver chains that I had just bought. The same black streaks showed up on the cloth, as if the chains were tarnished. The only explanation I have is that the cloth is taking off invisible tarnish or dirt and not just randomly reacting to the silver... This experiment shows that the cloth can't be your indicator that you've polished off all the tarnish. The only gauge for that is your eyes.
There are better ones November 21, 2009 D. OLaughlin (Indianapolis, IN) 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
Due to its small size, the cloth is relatively good at cleaning a few small items, i.e. spoons and the like. Ok for lightly tarnished small items when done with lots of rubbing. Yet, it very quickly absorbs the tarnish and is not longer effective. (And, yes, the tarnish does get on your hands.) I suggest spending a bit more and getting a larger size. Regardless of product claims, once these cloths gets 'goopy', give 'em up.
Remarkable *Polishing* Cloth! September 15, 2009 Alex Honda (Los Angeles, CA USA) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
The SUNSHINE POLISHING CLOTH is fantastic! I bought it because I purchased some silver jewelry that suggests using a polishing cloth rather than a liquid or wax silver cleaner and this little cloth really cleans.
I used the cloth on a pair of silver bangle bracelets that had tarnished while in storage, you know just to test it out, and as soon as I started gently rubbing the tarnish came off and the silver was sparkling like new. I was amazed that this could be done without some form of detergent or silver polishing cream.
The SUNSHINE CLOTH comes in a cardboard holder that looks like an envelop, to store when not in use. There are no instructions but all you have to do is rub with the dry cloth and the tarnish gets wiped away.
I don't think that the cloth can be washed once it becomes really dirty but it looks like that will take many, many cleanings for that to happen. I'm glad I found these!

Another reviewer said her relative who is a professional jeweler only uses this cloth on silver. That's why I tried it and does an awesome cleaning job without a lot of effort. I bought an inexpensive diamond "chips" ring set in sterling. It has a floral detail in the design with a lot of tweeny weeny crevices. The oxidation in the setting took away from the beauty of the diamond chips. I cleaned it with this cloth and the ring looks much better than when I purchased it. The ring sparkles now. It completely cleaned in all those crevices and tiny bead settings. The cloth even continues to clean when it is "dirty". I getting ready to purchase some more.
