Cleaning White Gold

You would think that it would be a very simple thing to clean your white gold rings - actually it is simple, but you just have to be careful what you use on your rings. Ammonia and some other types of chemicals will ruin your white gold jewelry. No one wants to cause damage to their jewelry, so a lot of times you may avoid cleaning them to avoid damaging them, but then you lose that elegant shine that white gold produces. You want to make sure that you either have your white gold cleaned by a professional or clean them yourself. This is the only way to continue to enjoy the shine and beauty that white gold has to offer. If you take your white gold to a professional to be cleaned, they usually use a steam cleaner on the jewelry and then a soft cloth to make sure they are dried well. When your rings or other jewelry are returned to you they look as good as they did the day you first bought them. White gold is made from combining gold and another white metal like nickel together; this is why it is imperative you keep your white gold away from chlorine. If your white gold is continuously exposed to chlorine it can wear out your jewelry and cause breakage. You want to protect your white gold so be sure and remove before going swimming in a pool. If you want to clean your white gold yourself you can do this by washing your jewelry in a lukewarm solution of mild soap. Another way is by putting the jewelry in water that has been boiling with a little dish detergent added, and letting them soak until clean. Rinsing them off while using a toothbrush and plain soap will also clean your white gold quickly and easily. Whatever method you use to clean your white gold jewelry be sure to use a soft cloth to fully dry polish them to a beautiful shine.
