Any silver stains can be lightened or removed by the old method for removing 
mercury pigment.  This particular timing will remove it all so I would start 
the sequence of steps in 5 second increments, repeat or lengthen times as 
needed.
1. Hydrate to distilled water.
2.Place in Lugols iodine for 5 minutes.
3.Rinse in two changes of distilled water.
4.Place in 2% sodium thiosulfate for 1 minute.
5.Wash in running tap water and rinse in two changes of distilled water.
