    I have used both Rouge and Zam and migrated to Zam because I like
    the look it gives.  I took a piece of silver scrap and polished half
    of it with Rouge and half with Zam.  Now, maybe I am seeing things,
    but to my eye, the half polished with Rouge was a deeper silver color
    and the half polished with Zam was a brighter silver color.  I like
    the brighter color produced by Zam, that's why I use it.  But when I
    used Rouge I always washed the piece in ammonia w/dish soap and that
    removed the remainder of the Rouge easily.  I never had any
    additional tarnish as a result of using Rouge.
