Hi Bandook.

On this silver stocked pistol, I just remove the lock and barrel and use spray on silver polish, wait a half minute, and wipe off with a soft towel used for polising automobiles. For the spike in the grip area after spraying on and still damp, I use a nylon bristle brush, then wipe off. Seems to work fine. And does not over polish the silver. I'll post a photo right after I clean mine. It will look closer to Corrado's. But Corrado's is in EXTRA nice condition.
