    Hello!  I am experimenting with cold enameling and plique a jour with
    colored resin and sterling silver.  I've been reading a book by
    Kathie Murphy which has been informative on the subject, however, my
    concern is that the sterling silver may end up discoloring the metal
    and resin.  Her book recommends that I should treat the surface of
    the metal to prevent discoloring, however, it does not teach you how
    to treat the metal.  Any suggestions on how to treat the metal?
    Thank you for your time!
