>make sure to do the baking soda aluminum foil trick first BEFORE polishing, it turn most of the AgS back int Ag

Memeing aside I don't really mind the minuscule loss of silver atoms from polishing, you need to sacrifice a few to get a good mirror shine going. Usually the aluminum and baking soda trick isn't necessary but when you have extremely thick tarnish it's very helpful. These shakers were basically black when I got them and it would have taken ages just using polish so they were cooked with foil which made the finish-polishing much easier.

Alright frogbro, I got those cheapie Japanese .950 shakers about as nice as I can without firing up my buffing wheel. They're basically flawless and will shine like mirrors after that. They say weighted but are more accurately "loaded base" where they had a little molten lead poured into the bottom instead of shitty fragile resin or plaster. The lead is only in the necked-down section between the hollow pedestal base and the main body.
