First of all, diamonds are lipophilic.
Although diamonds are hard, they also have an attribute-they are water-repellent and oil-loving, so diamonds stained with oil stains cannot be washed with water. Try to avoid oil stains when wearing jewelry. When you wear jewelry, oil will remain on your diamond, darkening the luster of the diamond.
Second, how to clean?
After wearing for a period of time, there will be a layer of oil on the surface, which needs to be cleaned frequently to keep the diamond bright. In order to prevent the diamond from being damaged, please use the correct maintenance methods. The cleaning methods mainly include:
1. Detergent cleaning: Fill the container with warm water, add neutral detergent (the ratio of detergent to water is about 16: 1), soak the diamond jewelry for 10- 15 minutes, gently brush it with a toothbrush, and then rinse it with clear water. Remember, don't wash directly under the tap. Once the diamond comes loose and falls off and rushes into the sewer, it's too late to regret it.
2. Quick cleaning: go to the jewelry store to buy diamond cleaning solution and clean diamond jewelry according to the instructions.
3. Professional cleaning: It is recommended to do professional cleaning for the ring at least once a year. Jewelers may use ultrasonic or steam cleaner to decompose the accumulated residues, and if the dirt is serious, they will use sulfuric acid to soak them. However, before any cleaning work, you should report all serious defects to the jeweler. The reason is that some cleaning techniques may aggravate the cracks and defects of diamonds, making the overall structure weaker and easier to break. Try not to use ultrasonic cleaning for jewelry with small broken diamonds, so as to avoid the broken diamonds falling off;
Three. Precautions for wearing diamonds
1, when doing housework and using cosmetics, try not to wear a ring, bleach and cosmetics will not damage the diamond, but will make the inlay fade or change color.
Don't wear diamonds when washing dishes or doing rough work. Although the diamond is hard, according to its grain direction, it may be damaged by hard impact.
3. Try not to wear a ring when preparing for hot springs, swimming or going to the gym to enjoy the sauna. The low water temperature and hot steam in the sauna may cause the fingers to contract and the ring to slip off more easily.
4. Bring your own diamond jewelry to a regular jewelry store once a year to check whether the inlay is loose and worn, re-fixed, and refurbished for free.
How to maintain diamonds? Maintenance is actually the precautions when wearing it at ordinary times. As long as you can pay attention to these matters at ordinary times, the maintenance of diamonds is basically completed. In addition, I love the free maintenance of diamond rings sold by Diamond Net for life, and consumers can also go to the store for free cleaning and polishing at any time.
