What do you use to clean satin nickel?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

All types of nickel hardware, including satin nickel hardware, can tarnish. For this reason, it's very important to stay on top of your nickel cleaning. Cleaning all nickel hardware is done the same way. First, wash the items with a mild detergent in warm water. Rinse them completely and then dry them with a soft, lint-free cloth. If you have stubborn stains on your satin nickel cabinet hardware, you can combine baking soda with just enough water to create a paste. Then, cover the hardware with the paste and let it dry. Finally, run each cabinet hardware piece under warm water and buff dry with a soft, lint-free cloth. If you are still having problems with stains after using the baking soda, then try a silver cleaning polish. Follow the directions on the packaging to ensure that you don't scratch the metal.

Finally, if the satin nickel cabinet hardware is really heavily stained, you can try giving it a bath! Remove the hardware and place it in a bath with one part ammonia and three parts water. Make sure that the hardware is completely submerged and allow it to soak for half an hour. Then, rinse each cabinet hardware piece with warm water and dry it with a soft cloth.

How do you make satin rosettes?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

I think i have made them before....First you should get these white almonds.(that's not the name for it, but they do look like white almonds). Then you will have to get some strong green tape.Michales might be the best place to get this stuff. Then, you need thick silk. You should probably get pink or red silk. Then, You will need these sticks that are green, and kind of skinny. Sorry, I don't know what any of these things are called. I think you will now have all the items. It is pretty easy to make them. * First you wrap the silk around the almond and strongly hold it * Then, while you are still strongly holding the silk and almond, you use the tape and tape the silk and almond to the stick. * Make sure it is sturdy. * Now you are all done! Another Answer from another viewer- we have made them by sewing sides of a 2" x 3 1/2" piece of silk together to make approx a 3 1/2" long cylinder. Turn inside out (seam on inside) and tape one end (with floral tape) to a wood stem. Tuck the top of cylinder into itself to complete your rosette. You can also fill them with birdseed or rice prior to tucking the top in, if you plan to use for a wedding, and add leaves for more detail. Hope this helps.
