How do you clean the INSIDE of an old silver flask?
I bought this old well-crafted silver flask and would actually like to use it. I've used several iterations of hot and soapy water but there are still silver particles coming out of the flask and the alcohol tastes metallic.
Any ideas?
If the silver is coming off the flask it is probably not usable and should be for looks only. But if it is 'stuff' inside the flask then put in some uncooked rice, add a drop of liquid dish washing soap, and a little water, cap and shake for 2 minutes, pour out, rinse well, and add clear water, shake and pour out (if there are flakes in the water still, it is NOT usable).
