In fact, it is normal for natural diamonds to have this situation. Because diamonds are lipophilic and hydrophobic gems, oil and dust in our skin and daily food may adhere to the surface of diamonds, which makes diamonds lose their original fire color and brightness and look gray. Don't worry! You can make diamonds shine at home!
1, simple cleaning
For diamonds that are not too dirty but only slightly dusty, we usually use clean water to treat them, and it is best to wash them with running water.
If you wash it, it is recommended to wash it in a small basin. If you wash under the tap, be sure to cover the drain of the sink, otherwise the diamond will fall into the sewer and shout, "Don't wash it every day." ... one of my uncle's clients and friends had a purple tragedy before. ...
2. Deep cleaning
If it is a diamond with grease, you can put warm water in a small bowl or teacup, mix a proper amount of neutral detergent (such as detergent) in the water, soak the diamond jewelry in the water, brush it gently with a soft toothbrush, then rinse it with clean warm water, and finally dry it with a soft cloth.
3. Special cleaning
If you have a lot of jewelry, including gold, silver, diamonds, precious stones and pearls, and you are so obsessed with cleaning, then I suggest that you can go to the mall or online (such as a treasure) to buy a special jewelry cleaning tool to clean it, and then match it with the attached washing container and follow the instructions to complete the jewelry cleaning process.
4. Dedicated to lazy people
Finally, if you buy a diamond ring in a shopping mall near your home, you can directly ask them to help you clean it. If they use ultrasonic cleaning, they must pay attention to:
(1) jewelry inlaid with a large number of small broken diamonds should be cleaned with ultrasonic as little as possible to avoid the loosening of small diamonds.
② If there are emeralds, pearls, etc. On your diamond ring, remember not to use ultrasonic cleaning, which will damage the gem.
5. Precautions for diamond maintenance:
(1) Don't always touch the diamond with your hands. Diamonds are lipophilic, and the oil on your skin will affect the luster and brightness of diamonds.
② Don't wear and place diamond jewelry with other gems, because the hardness of diamond is very high, which will wear other gems.
Although diamonds are hard, they are brittle, so try to avoid collision.
(4) Regularly check whether the diamonds embedded in the diamond ring are loose.
