Cleaning silver with baking soda and aluminum foil (and hot water!)

Video showing how easily you can clean large silver pieces using aluminum foil, baking soda and hot water. The heat is key - warm water from the faucet won't cut it, you must get the water close to boiling for this to be effective. A large sheet of heavy duty foil and a few cups of baking soda in hot water, in a container large enough to soak the pieces. Do them one at a time, and make sure the piece is in contact with the foil.

Is it ok to clean silver often? or is it ok to clean everyday using this method.

It works Very well, I didn't even have hot water or much foil touching the silver, solid silver & plated all work very well --very easy.
