Go to the auto parts store and get a bottle of degreaser. That will
take the oils off very well. Keep off hands or it will really dry them out.

Try putting the strips in the oven. Silver won't melt at oven temps

put on--there was no need to add anything if he was thinning out a
piece of silver, unless he has some sort of hydraulic press or roller
that deposited lubricant to the silver. Odd, though. I've never seen
anyone do that before.

I did try my local jeweller / smelter but he contaminated it with i
assume is lubricating fluid, (i provided some Canadian maples for this
purpose), no amount of keeping it in vinegar Or Cola for its
phosphoric acid could rid it of the crap that would effuse out in the
brew!...even though they came out super shiny!.
