Thank you for a perfect job explaining and answering all my questions. I wasn't left with any questions or confusion which I have been getting up to now!

[@danieldambrosio50]

What a great job you did explaining....very clear and concise. Other channels left me with questions still...yours did not. I think a part 2 video for gold would be awesome. Thank you very much!

[@DIYMETALS]

Thank you! We’re going to be doing a few gold videos very soon.

I use 18k. It turns the milky milky color when silver (750) or higher. I assume the blue milky color is silver chloride

[@tmagnerqa1663]

How about silver plate?

[@digginggopher]

I use 18k not 14k, the silver scratches turns bright blue, but i heard you cam get false positives with some metals
The silver test acid i have says green is .500 silver, but i tested it on a 50% 1968 canadian dime and it didnt look green to me, just looked less red then the .800

[@dallashitchens5456]

That's exactly what I just told them. I wrote up a post explaining how to test it the proper way. I'm sure you know the truth and that that red acid is unneeded

[@QueenTiffany420]

If it's fake silver, but plated, which most fakes are, will it still show as fake? Or can the thin plating give a false readinG?

[@danieldambrosio50]

Silver plated usually has copper or brass underneath. If you scratch jewelry and see red/brown color it's definitely not silver.

[@patriciagarcia4327]

I have silver plate, but when I tested it says it's silver?

[@winterdayz99]

For silver plated, as I understand it. You have to file deep enough to reach the base metal that the silver covers for the acid to react to it.

I was wondering why it was blurry. You uploaded this in potato 🥔 quality.
