How do you replate silverware so you can eat with it (on a budget)?

Question

I am on a budget and was wondering is there is a less expensive coating to put on the old silverware that is silver plated, so you can eat with them. Answers appreciated (I will choose a best answer)

Thanks

Answer 1

I am not understanding your question.  Why can't you eat with them the way they are?

Answer 2

Pure silverwares can be cleaned by rubbing with lime powder and cleaning with some cloth thereafter.

Answer 3

Assuming that you are talking about "real" silverplate and not chromium plating or nickle plating and that you don't want to poision yourself, take your silverware to a jeweler and ask them to re-plate the items. They can mask the undamaged areas and replate only the bad spots. By not replating everything, your costs will be a lot less.

DON'T use anything that comes out of a spray can for foods....ever.
