To use: Add ammonium hydroxide (by the drop) to solution 1. Stir solution while adding the ammonium hydroxide until precipitate clears. Add solution 2 to 1. Stir solution while adding ammonium until precipitate is slightly cloudy. Pour solution into glass vessel to be silvered. Add solution 3, stir/shake.

solution one 2 liters distilled water, 50 grams silver nitrate. Store in a dark glass bottle.

solution two 2 liters distilled water, 90 grams potassium hydroxide.

solution three 800 ml distilled water, 80 grams cane sugar, 100 ml ethyl alcohol, 3.5 ml nitric acid. Age 30 days or boil 30 minutes before using.

Solutions are used at the following ratio: 1 : 2 : 3 = 64% : 32% : 4% by volume

warning; use chemicals in a well ventilated area. wear protective clothing. promptly and safely discard unused mixed solutions.
