Cleaning jewelry

October 21, 2008

Is your jewelry looking a little dingy?

I wear a sterling silver Half-Persian 3-in-1 bracelet nearly 24 x 7, and after a while it starts looking just a little greyish. Depending on how much time I have to clean it up, I use a couple of different methods:

Couple of hours to overnight – drop it in the tumbler with some clean water, a squirt of blue Dawn dish soap and stainless steel shot. After even just 30 minutes, it’s looking a lot better; an extended bath makes it sparkle like it’s brand new.

If I’m a little more rushed but want to clean it up, I’ll use the jewelry cleaner from www.sunshine101.com – I love this stuff and it works nearly as well as the tumbler! Here’s a little about Sunshine’s jewelry cleaner:

Professional Jewelry Cleaner – safe for fine jewelry, gold, platinum,
silver, pearls, opals, soft stones, antique jewelry, costume jewelry and of
course diamonds.

**CONTAINS NO AMMONIA, ACID OR ALCOHOL**
This amazing cleaner contains 100% biodegradable cleaning agents plus
banana and coconut oil. The cleaner rinses film free; that’s why it brings
out 100% more sparkle, color and brilliance to your diamonds, cubic zirconia’s,
crystals, rhinestones, and all stones; opals radiate more fire, and pearls
impart more luster. It is mild enough for pearls, yet powerful enough to
bring back that “brand new look” to all of your jewelry.

**NOTE** Do not soak soft stones for any length of time. Use the cleaner on
soft stones to just wash them then rinse with water.

Safe to soak diamonds overnight to loosen any dirt that may have settled
under the prongs.Our Jewelry Cleaner can also be broken down one third cleaner
to two thirds water in a spray bottle for cleaning crystals, glasses, and
mirrors. Cleaner acts as an anti-fog for glasses and mirrors.

I really like Sunshine’s cleaner, and it lasts a long time as well. I last ordered a large container nearly two years ago, and I’m still using it!
