How to Make an At-Home Jewelry Cleaner for White Gold

Clean white gold with diluted ammonia.

White gold is expensive and requires cleaning just like any other piece of jewelry. Often times you need to clean the jewelry and do not have the appropriate cleaner on hand, or you simply do not want to pay the high price of commercial jewelry-cleaning solutions. Making your own at-home jewelry cleaner is easy and can be done with items that are most likely already in your home.

Things You'll Need

• Water
• Dish soap
• Ammonia
• Toothbrush
• Cleaning rag

Instructions

1. Fill the sink with a few inches of water and add a squirt of dish soap.

2. Pour in a small portion of ammonia for an even deeper cleaning, using about one part ammonia to six parts water.

3. Swish the white gold around in the cleaning solution and remove. Scrub gently with an old toothbrush to get in and around all crevices.

4. Rinse the white gold with clean water and dry with a cleaning rag.
