How to easily clean gold and diamond jewelry. A no muss, no fuss way to clean gold and diamond jewelry and make them sparkle.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • small container with warm water (about 4 ounces)
  • your gold and diamond jewelry
  • denture cleaning tablets (any brand will do)
  • clean water for rinsing
  • soft paper towel for drying
  1. Step 1

    Fill container 2/3 full with warm water. (about 4 ounces) Right from the tap will do just fine.

  2. Step 2

    Place your gold and diamond jewelry into the water, making sure not to tangle chains and that it is covered with the water.

  3. Step 3

    Place one denture cleaning tablet into the water and watch it go to work. The foaming action cleans under the stones without the worry of the setting loosening like some sonic cleaners can do.

  4. Step 4

    Leave the jewelry in the water until the foaming stops, it will take about 5 minutes.

  5. Step 5

    Carefully take out the jewelry and rinse in the clean water. Don't worry about your hands, the solution is gentle enough to put into your mouth.

  6. Step 6

    Place jewelry onto the paper towel to dry. Buff with the towel and be amazed at the shine!
