What is a good, safe way to polish "real" silver.. ie trays, tea services, ect.?

I've heard of several "home remedy" mixtures that will effectively polish and remove tarnish from silver pieces. I help an older lady in her home and she has many peices badly in need of cleaning. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated! The old-timey silver paste polish is not an option! Thanks...

To quickly clean tarnished silverware, line an pan with aluminum foil, shiny side up. Place your silverware in the pan. Sprinkle with baking soda, then add boiling water. Allow to soak for a minute or two, then add cooler water to remove the pieces without burning your hands. Rinse with warm water and dry immediately. Presto...clean and shiny without all the work!

The product called" Dip It." The least abrasive possible.
We use Wrights Silver Polish.

It doesn't damage the fine silver and makes it shine like new. In addition it puts an invisible coat that delays the tarnish from returning so you don't have to polish often.

You still have to polish. It delays - not prevents.
Believe it or not -- toothpaste (not the gel but paste). Dab some toothpaste on the tarnish and wipe it off. It will look like it is brand new!
