Best Answer

A polishing cloth works great to remove tarnish from white and yellow gold.

To clean gold jewelry use a solution of half Mr. Clean and water with a small amount of ammonia. Soak for 15 seconds then rinse with water and dry.

If the white gold ring has a yellow tint, you may need to bring the ring into a jewelry store to have it rhodium plated again.

How do you clean white gold plated jewelry?

Most white gold is plated to give it the bright white color. There is one white gold that I know of which needs no plating which is called "X1 White Gold". To clean your white gold plated jewelry a solution of half water and Mr. Clean with a small amount of ammonia can be used. Soak for 15 seconds then rinse with water and dry.


How can you clean silver jewelry?

There are two levels of clean when talking about sterling silver jewelry. The piece of sterling jewelry could be either simply dirty or tarnished or both. If the piece is only dirty a solution of Mr. Clean, water, and ammonia can be used. Mix half water and Mr. Clean with a small amount of ammonia. This is the same solution many jewelers I know use in their ultrasonic to clean all types of fine jewelry. Allow the jewelry to soak for 15 seconds then rinse with water and dry. You can repeat if need be. More likely than not sterling jewelry is also tarnished. Sterling does tarnish much quicker than gold or platinum. Removing tarnish from sterling silver jewelry is easy. Mix just enough water with baking soda to make a paste and use the paste to rub on the jewelry to remove the tarnish. Rinse with water then dry.

GOld in a ring is an element?

Yes, the gold in jewelry (such as rings) is an element. But jewelry is not made of pure gold, because pure gold is too soft. The other metals make it harder, and can affect the color of the jewelry (this is how you get 'white gold' - different metals make it look more white than other gold jewelry).

How do you clean cheap gold jewelry?

To bring back the shine for a 14 karat gold piece of jewelry I would use a polishing cloth which can be purchased online or at most jewelry stores. They are inexpensive. Use the cloth to rub the gold on the ring. The cloth has special chemicals which react with the gold to remove the tarnish. The cloth will turn black, but don't throw it away. The cloth will be good for a long time after it turns black. After polishing your jewelry you may want to clean it. Use a mixture of half Mr. clean and water with a small amount of ammonia. Soak for 15 seconds then rinse in water and dry. I will include a link in the related links section to a full article about cleaning fine jewelry.
