Clean plated jewelry?

Clean plated jewelry? The best way to clean plated jewelry is to leave it in a warm water bath. However, it is important that the water is not too hot. It is good to add washing-up liquid, soap or soap to the water. It is good to use a bowl for the purpose. When the water is ready, the plated jewelery should lie in the water bath for approximately 10-15 minutes. The next step is to take the jewelry out of the bowl and rinse it under lukewarm running water until all the detergent or soap is gone. Then wipe the jewelry with a soft cloth or a polishing cloth. Then place the jewelry in a suitable place to air dry.


Handle plated jewelry with care

It is important to clean plated jewelry. It is good to remember not to rub too much but to be gentle. Rubbing too hard can wear the plating surface and shorten the life of the jewelry. How often plated jewelry needs to be cleaned depends on how often it is used. If the jewelery is used every day, it is advisable to clean it once a week or every two weeks. When plated jewelry is not worn, it is good to store it in a dry place.
The difference between our surgical steel and titanium jewelry is that our plating ring is very durable and wear-resistant. It is about 10 times stronger than a silver-plated piece of jewelry. Although you can live an everyday life with our jewelry and minimal entertainment is required, we recommend that you be careful with it.

Cleaning of silver and gold-plated jewellery

Both silver and gold-plated jewelry are delicate. To clean gold-plated jewelry, a water bath followed by drying with a soft cloth is suitable. The same method applies to silver-plated jewelry. To do a deep cleaning of gold-plated jewelry, it is good to use a toothbrush. Then it is easy to scrub in more difficult-to-reach places. It is also good to use a toothbrush if there has been a stain or similar that does not go away by itself. It is important to know that all jewelry plated with gold or silver will oxidize and change its appearance at some point despite cleaning.
