Cleaning Sterling Silver CZ Cubic Zirconia Jewelry
Friday, September 4th, 2009Glitzs provides solid information on how to delicately and effectively clean your cz silver jewelry. Special diamond cleaner works, but is not required. You can simply wipe the cubic zirconia with a soft damp cloth. Use a dry, cotton cloth for polishing the silver or other precious metal.
A few other tips:
“Cleaning the CZ stones set in your silver jewelry is a delicate process with several important steps:
- Make sure that the stone is not loose before you clean it. If you can wiggle it with a toothpick, you should get it repaired before you clean it.
- Never immerse a stone in water or any liquid if it is foil-backed, or the foil will disengage.
- Use a solution of a drop or 2 of ammonia and 2 or 3 drops of dishwashing soap in half a cup of warm water on a damp cloth to clean each piece meticulously.”
