homemade silver polish

Anyone have a natural, homemade silver polish or cleaner recipe?

I have a few pieces of silver that needed to be cleaned very badly.

TIA

Just read this today

Silver: Boil silver 3 minutes in a quart of water containing: 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon salt, and a piece of aluminum foil.
Or, rub silver with a baking soda/water paste and a soft cloth; rinse and polish dry.
Or, rub with toothpaste.
Use a toothbrush to clean raised surfaces. Be careful not to scratch surfaces. Be gentle and use a light hand.
