    Erica, Is the bracelet made from stock that you purchased or did you
    roll out your own sheet? It sounds like you could have microporosity
    in the silver .I would loupe it and see if you can notice any
    microporosity. If it is microporosity you can burnish some of it out
    if it with a burnisher you can buy from any jewelry supply store. It
    is a little tricky to do but try it. Also do you have any scrap left
    over from making the piece? If so try buffing that to see if you get
    the same effect. I would also recommend putting new muslin buffs on
    your machine and using Tripoli on a stitched buff and red rouge on an
    unstitched loose buff. Your buffs may have been contaminated. Also
    try buffing in the opposite direction of the streaks using easy
    pressure.  Regards J Morley Coyote Ridge Studio
