| One can use toothpaste and a tiny brush to remove tarnish from silver without getting much, if any, on the pearls.
I use a cheat for my silverplated teapot. I get a plastic dishpan and put a sheet of aluminum foil on the bottom, cover it with water to depth of teaopot and a tablespoon or more of baking soda. I dip the pot in and the varnish disappears instantly. I do not have a clue what the chemistry of this combination would do to pearls. I don't use it for polishing my sterling tableware as it takes the black out of the cracks too.
What is Attack? I tried Attack Cleaner on Google and got a photo chemical tank cleaner...
