    Default De-silvered mirror question

    Just a question has there been successful attempts to place new mirror behind old mirror glass to make it like the original item? I have a bevelled mirror that has lost 95% of the silver and was considering trying to put mirror behind it. Thank you

    Just bite the bullet and have it re-silvered, I have never found a budget method that works and place a mirror behind it will create reflection.
