Rhodium for silver
+
I understand that Rhodium protects silver with a tarnish proof
covering but where can I obtain Rhodium for personal use? I have many
pieces of jewelry, silver, and I am always cleaning them.
Thank You,

You MIGHT find rhodium plated onto light reflecting surfaces, and
if you are lucky, some (I don't know which brand) auto headlights can
be located at junkyards! Failing that, try a professional
electroplating jewellery manufacturer. Good luck, and please post
your findings!

Ed. note: Rhodium plating solution is available from the site's
supporting advertiser
Technic. But protecting
silver from tarnishing is an industrial art, it is not as easy as
just dipping it in rhodium plating solution. Please do some
investigation before ordering any plating solution! And if you have
important pieces, please send them to a plating shop.
