I have spent some time searching the web and newsgroups for recipes
for electrocleaning / electropolishing solutions. All I find seems to
be oriented towards iron and steel (read: remove rust) but nothing so
far for gold and silver.
I am aware of the commercial products, but I trust there is
effective replacement possible.
Thanks!

I have spent some time searching the web and newsgroups for recipes for electrocleaning / electropolishing solutions.
I continued searching and wanted to share with you some links:

Not much about electrocleaning, even lesser about electropolishing,
but nice, informative (sic!) nevertheless.
The quest continues…
