Dear Dianne,

    To give better advice I would need to actually see what you having
    trouble with. If you can take a digital picture, send me a close-up
    image through the magazine's website. 

    But, if you have pre-polished and then soldered and pickled, in
    theory you should only have to lightly buff with a soft muslin buff
    (using a finishing rouge) to remove the white, fine-silver residue
    that is on the piece when the piece comes out of the pickle. 

    It may just be the hard felt buffs. Are you getting a rippled uneven
    surface effect?
