Remove tarnish with a commercial pewter polish or a paste made of rottenstone and boiled linseed oil or olive oil. After cleaning, wash in hot, soapy water and rinse with hot water. Dry by rubbing in one direction until no black comes off on the cloth. Complete buffing is necessary for a shine that lasts. Fingerprints are hazardous to old pewter pieces if touched before completely dry.
