While we cook, clean, bathe, drive, exercise, and have fun, the engagement ring has a lot of wear and tear. That’s why cleaning your engagement ring at home every few weeks is necessary. It removes chemicals and substances on the ring that rust, corrode, or destroy it. You don’t need special cleaners to clean engagement rings in Chicago. Household items work wonders.
Soaking your ring in a bowl filled with warm water and dishwashing liquid for 15 to 30 minutes loosens dirt, dust, and other debris. After the soak, take it out and gently scrub hard to remove grime with a soft-bristled toothbrush. If dirt is in unreachable places, use a toothpick to remove it. Then, rinse the ring with warm water. Use a stopper to close the open drain to block the ring from falling in. During the process, rotate the ring so the warm water washes away every inch of soap. Dry your ring off with a soft, lint-free cloth. Paper towels scratch the ring metal, and bath towels leave fuzz on the ring. Let the ring air dry on a bare surface for 15 to 30 minutes.
A professional cleaning at a jewelry shop goes beyond keeping engagement rings in Chicago pristine. The expert will examine the ring to see if there are issues. If there are, a jewelry repair person will fix them. When you use professional and at-home cleaning methods, your ring will look beautiful for a long time.
