Cleaning Jewelery With Ultrasonic Cleaner
Cleaning Jewelery With Ultrasonic Cleaner
Before you can start cleaning your jewellery with an ultrasonic cleaner, you'll need to purchase a tank and fill it with the appropriate cleaning solution. There are different models available, and some have a built-in heater to keep the water hot while the jewellery cleans. The key to a thorough clean is using hot water because cold water does not provide the same level of clean. You may also want to check the temperature of the water in your ultrasonic cleaner, as boiling it may damage the pieces.
Cleanser formulas
There are different types of cleaner formulas for jewellery that use an ultrasonic cleaner. You can find a variety of cleaners in stores, some of which will include a special solution to remove tarnish and buildup. Other jewelry cleaners simply use water to remove dirt. For those who have more sensitive skin, there are natural alternatives to rubbing alcohol. For instance, Simple Shine organic jewelry cleaner is good for fine metals like gold and silver. It's also safe for more delicate stones like quartz and topaz.
Cleaning solution
Ultrasonic cleaners generate agitated bubbles, heat, and pressure, which work to remove dirt and buildup from jewellery. Users can control the amount of pressure and heat to suit their needs. They should leave their items in the water for several minutes to achieve the best results. After several minutes, the items should be rinsed thoroughly and dried. If the jewellery is expensive, ultrasonic cleaning may be worth the money.
Cavitation processes
A jeweller should take care when using an ultrasonic cleaner. The vibrations created by ultrasonic cleaners can undo any colour enhancements done to diamonds. Another precaution is to avoid cleaning gemstones that are coated with wax, resin, or oil. This cleaning process can damage these materials, so it is important to follow the manufacturer's guidelines. The dilution amount of the cleaning solution varies depending on the type of jewelry and the ultrasonic cleaner used.
Safer than mechanical/manual cleaning
Ultrasonic jewellery cleaning is more effective and safe than manual or mechanical methods, but you should check the material used to clean your jewelry before using one. Some materials are not suitable for ultrasonic cleaning, including tungsten, which can suffer from tiny fractures when subjected to intense vibrations. In addition, tungsten does not tarnish, fade, or corrode, making it a low-maintenance metal.
Suitable for gemstones
Depending on the type of stone, different methods are required for cleaning various gemstones. To make cleaning easier and safer, you can use warm water and a plug. You also need cleaning solutions, lint-free cloths, and jewelry polishing cloths. Another gentle cleaning tool is a soft-bristled toothbrush or makeup brush. To avoid scratching your gemstones, avoid putting them in contact with chemical substances, such as perfumes, hair products, or harsh chemicals.
