A pickle tip from @kaypeajewelry “If your silver has copper plating on it in your pickle, a little squirt of hydrogen peroxide will clear it right up!” This recipe of 50/50 pickle and hydrogen peroxide is also known as “super pickle.” It can be very helpful in removing the copper after you solder brass. Eventually, the hydrogen peroxide becomes inactive, and you can continue to use the pickle until it gets so filled with copper that it turns green. 😄 hope this is helpful. #pickletip #jewelrymakingtips #picklingjewelry
