subject: Spotless Gold Jewelry [print this page] Everybody noticed and admired your magnificent gold ring when you first wore it on your finger. Back then, it was all shiny and sparkling but now it has become dull and beamless because of the various factors (sweat, water, etc.) affecting its shine.
Now you can bring back to life your old or pawned jewelry with few simple tricks. Do not waste such a great opportunity of purchasing cheap pawned jewelry simply because they are dull. Take advantage of the small prices that the economic recession has imposed on gold, instead.
One trick you may use to clean gold is to gently wash it with mild detergent. Gold jewelry must be left in this detergent-based mix for several minutes and then, with a toothbrush, they must be scrubbed until stains are completely removed.
Ammonia is a good cleaning agent when combined with five parts warm water. Gold jewelry must be soaked in this solution for no more than one minute, rinsed with normal water and in the end, wiped with a towel. Boric acid may be placed instead of ammonia enabling you to achieve better results and to better remove the stains by scrubbing the gold jewelry with a gentle brush.
A cheaper and easier cleanliness may be achieved with the help of the toothpaste. All you have to do is apply the toothpaste on the gold and then brush it with a toothbrush or a rough towel. Besides helping you save money, this method is also advantageous because the process may be repeated for as long as it takes to achieve the desired outcome without affecting the inner structure of the metal.
If you think cleaning your gold jewelry by yourself is difficult or you find these pieces of information distrustful, you may resort to professional help in exchange of a very small sum. Gold dealers can offer you professional cleaning services by using special substances, but for that, you need to leave your jewelry at the shop for at least one day.
With the help of these simple tricks, the rays of your gold, be it old or pawned, will be able to shine tirelessly over the years. Let women around you envy you for the beautiful rings and bracelets you possess by uncovering the true value of your gold!
