What’s the best way to clean white gold jewelry?

H.A.R. asked:


I’m a newlywed. I’m wearing my great grandma’s white gold and diamond wedding ring. It’s beautiful! I’ve been wearing it for a few months now but I’ve noticed parts of the ring are starting to get dirty. It has this white soap scum looking stuff on it. I do wash my hands a lot so maybe it is soap scum. I don’t know. I tried tarnex because that’s what I use on all of my sterling silver jewelry, but that didn’t work. Is there anything like that for white gold?

What do I do to preserve my fake silver necklace?

Jon asked:


I have a very cheap friendship necklace that I sometimes leave in the same room as my shower, so the steam gets on it, and lately it’s been turning a rust color.

I know it’s probably not rusting, but rather the fake silver is coming off. What do I do to make it silvery again? Are there any places that would clean such a cheap peice of jewelry?

What medicines, minerals or vitamins can cause jewelry to tarnish?

sjwallace1053 asked:


All the jewelry that I wear every day, both gold and silver, has suddenly started to tarnish. I clean it with jeweler’s polish, and the next day, it is tarnished again. This has never happened to me before.

They have just fluoridated our water. I have also started a couple of new supplements.
This answer had nothing to do with my question. S/he just sent websites to shop for jewelry.

What happens to the silver in this reaction?

Tani asked:


Years ago, I used to line a bread pan with aluminum foil, put in tarnished silverware or silver jewelry, along with a tablespoon of washing soda and a tablespoon of salt, pour in boiling hot water, and let it sit 5 or 10 minutes. Presto, the smell of sulfur dioxide, blackened foil, and beautifully clean, shining silver. Is the piece of silver losing silver in this reaction? Would you please show the formula for the reactions that are taking place? And is there any other common product that could be substituted for the washing soda, if I can’t find any? Sorry for asking two questions in one.
