do these beads tarnish quickly after use?

I am happy with these lobster clasp, I never wear them to water, so I do not know that they tarnish .

They do not discolor, even after heavy use. We did not use Silpat, have no experience with that.

When I first got my set, they seemed to be a bit shiny, possibly a light finish. It quickly wore off after a few uses. The handles are still shiny though.

My beads have never been green. They are orange and when I micro. them every week, for 30 seconds, they turn a lighter shade of orange.

I haven't noticed any difference in the quality of the end product (I use this for soap). The beads just pour much more easily and don't clump together like powder and crystals

They don't rust and stain as easily as people say. I had the same concern, but I haven't had that problem. Just make sure they are dried properly. This is a very good quality set. Not sure where they are made, but they have the highest quantity of stainless steel possible.

Yes and they are gorgeous beads although not very true to the ones in the picture. The first time I ordered them, the colors were more true to the pic

Honestly, I am not sure...I have silver jewelry and have not noticed any tarnish so far...I have had the case about a year. I do love it.

It is my understanding that they are not anti-tarnish. But they close pretty tightly, and so I have not noticed that anything tarnished easily. You might purchase some small anti-tarnish squares. I hope this helped.

lol, no worries, my experience is that when ever my silver is dirty I have use it and it hasn't harmed any of my silver items. The best answer I can tell you is that it hasn't harmed my silver items and Ive use it a lot but if you call a jewelry store you can ask the professional. I can only share my experience. Hope this helps bro.

I don't recall having to do that with any of the ones I got and they were sealed in plastic, but I guess if the beads are already indicating they are wet then I would.

I don't *think* so. I'm not sure, but the copper does tarnish a bit, which is what I would expect if they were not coated.

My girlfriend has had this for about 2 months and I dont see any signs of tarnishing.

Yes. They are very cheap (feel dirty after using for a long time). They are thin. They are copper/bronze on the outside, but silver on the inside (I used a file to smooth down the rough edges and you can see the silver color). They can be bent by hand. However, they are metal. They stack and clink like metal, too.

Well...they are not sterling silver,but they do have a metal core. Great if you don't wear them everyday as they tend to darken (core)and turn your arm green. I and my daughter found this out after wearing them a few weeks almost daily only taking off for showers. But...if your only wearing them maybe a couple times a week and then keeping the bracelet in a plastic bag with the air pushed out they should last longer than that. Hope this helps you...

I have had good luck with removing tarnish from silver. I believe its chemically as the blue magic does not scratch or feel gritty.
