UPDATE: Since posting this video two years ago I have found that Borax powder works SO MUCH BETTER than baking soda for cleaning silver. If your jewelry is really dirty, powdered Tide works great because it has mild soap along with Borax, in it.. I haven't tried it with Rhodium plating, but it works great with Argentium silver.
@hatebank01 - It doesn't work on gold for two reasons that work together. First reason is the process does not "clean"; it changes the chemical makeup of the tarnish back to silver. So if gold got dirty, this won't help much. The other reason is that gold will never tarnish, therefore gold would never require a treatment. IDK where you got the idea this works for gold.
dissolve the baking soda and also add salt and make sure the silver is touching the foil and it should work a lot better
