How to clean silver pooja vessels | pooja utensils Poojai saman cleaning  Tamil

Preparation for Varalakshmi Vratham | Vellikizhamai Pooja

The pictures give the steps to clean the pooja utensils.  

Take dish washing powder and detergent ( I usually have them in separate containers for Puja items alone )
Take coconut fibre , it should be soft
Use hot water for oily lamps
Brush the vessels with the mixture of detergent and dish washing powder
Wash with cold water
Clean with a soft cloth
I find that using this method the silver vessels stay bright for a long time - two to three weeks
