Caring For Your Jewelry
Cleaning stainless steel gold-plated and sterling silver jewelry requires a delicate touch to avoid damaging the finish. Here's a simple product care guide to help you keep your jewelry looking its best:
1. When you remove your jewelry for the day, give it a quick wipe with a soft cloth or a jewelry cloth. This will remove any dirt, oils, or sweat that can accumulate on the surface of the jewelry.
2. Soak the jewelry: In a small bowl, combine warm water with a few drops of mild soap. Place your jewelry in the bowl and let it soak for a few minutes.
3. Remove dirt: Use a soft-bristled brush or a toothbrush to gently scrub away any dirt or debris on the jewelry. Be careful not to scrub too hard, as this can scratch the gold-plated finish.
4. Dry thoroughly: Rinse the jewelry under warm running water to remove any soap residue, then pat dry with a soft cloth. Be sure to dry the jewelry thoroughly to prevent water spots or tarnishing.
Additional Tips:
- Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasives on your gold-plated jewelry, as these can damage the finish.
- Do not wear your jewelry in the shower or while swimming, as prolonged exposure to water and chlorine can cause the gold-plated finish to wear off.
- Store your jewelry in a dry, cool place, away from direct sunlight and heat sources, to prevent tarnishing and discoloration.
