Secrets To Cleaning Your Diamond Ring: A Useful Guide

You love your new 2ct. diamond rings and the way they sparkle and shine after being freshly cleaned and you want to keep it the same way forever.

 

However, daily wear and tear along with cosmetic buildup, dust, and oils can lead your ring to look tacky and dull its shine after some months. While you can take your ring to a professional you need to know how to clean it at home to remove surface buildup and restore its shimmer.

 

Here are some tips to keep in mind when it comes to cleaning your pieces at home.

 

How to clean your diamond rings at home

If your custom engagement rings in Toronto have been dirtied by-products like lotion, perfume, dust, or body oils, a simple cleaning at home can bring back their shine. All you need to do is make a solution of warm water with a couple of drops of gentle detergent and drop your ring in the solution for around 20 minutes.

 

You can then take a soft-bristled toothbrush and scrub between the gemstone and the metal band to remove any added dirt. Once done, simply rinse your piece under running water and dry it with a clean microfiber cloth.

 

Avoid using kitchen paper or other towels as they can scratch the metal band. You can clean your piece once or twice a week depending on how dirty it is and how active you are.

 

Most antique stores in Toronto will tell you to always check the metals and gemstones you have before you clean them. While diamonds, rubies, and sapphires are tough, stones like opals, moonstones, turquoise, and more can easily chip or break.

 

To Summarize

If your ring is delicate and soft then it’s best to take it to a professional a couple of times a year to clean, repair and maintain.
