Because this jadeite itself is easy to crack, if you want to remove the wax on it, you only need to soak it in warm water for a few hours, then gently scrub it with a brush dipped in hot water, and then wipe off the wax on the surface with cotton cloth or paper towel, which can also prevent jadeite from being secreted by dust and human body.
But also can make jadeite more beautiful, bright and bright.
However, the wax on this jade has not completely disappeared. Instead, it will be gradually absorbed by the skin, so that the secretions in the body cannot enter the jade.
Under normal circumstances, no matter what natural jadeite is made of, there will be wax on it.
The wax on jadeite usually refers to white wax or oil wax.
For jadeite, the main function of wax on jadeite is protection.
Because this kind of jade is just ordinary white wax, it has no influence on jade and will not have any negative influence, so it is very necessary for everyone to master the method of waxing jade in daily life.
The first kind is soaking jade, the purpose is to wax jade properly.
Soak jadeite in pure water for about half an hour and wait for secondary weathering.
Then take out the jade and brush it with a soft brush, then rinse it with clear water and wipe it with cotton cloth.
In addition, in the process of wearing jade, it is best to avoid contact with perfume, chemical solution, soap and human sweat. As we all know, sweat contains salt, volatile fatty acids and urea. If jadeite is not cleaned immediately after wearing, it will be eroded, destroy the outer layer and affect the original brightness.
In particular, glass jadeite and suet white jade, but also avoid sweat and grease.
Waxed jadeite is recognized in jadeite industry and national jewelry standards, and belongs to the category of jadeite surface optimization.
Waxing jadeite is actually the last process in the processing of jadeite products, which polishes the finished jadeite products to make jadeite look crystal clear.
However, this wax will not disappear completely. On the contrary, after polishing and air optimization, the surface of jadeite products still presents its original luster, just like the newly coated glass glue, which is dazzling and has a strong luster.
In addition, because jade ornaments are often polished with Sichuan wax to increase brightness after carving, the acid and alkali components in sweat will corrode tiny pits or cobweb-like lines on the surface of jade ornaments, thus making the surface of jade ornaments dull and reducing its brightness, and every ornament should be sealed with wax.
In a word, the wax on jadeite is an irreversible mineral. With the extension of wearing time, the wax on the surface of jadeite will slowly evaporate, making the surface of jadeite dull.
How long does it take for jadeite to wax? One to three months.
Waxing jadeite can not only make jadeite more shiny, but also prevent dust and dirt from adhering to affect its appearance.
Moreover, it takes patience and time to polish jadeite, and few people will polish jadeite and waste time.
Therefore, before buying jade, it is best to conduct a detailed identification.
Moreover, if there is wax on the surface of jadeite, it is generally B-grade jadeite or C-grade jadeite treated by acid and alkali corrosion, and this kind of jadeite is usually the rough stone with poor texture, and the items appearing on the lower surface will slowly fade after long-term wear.
Waxing jadeite can not only improve its face value, but also avoid the adhesion of dust and dirt, which will affect its appearance.

Moreover, if there is wax on the surface of jadeite, it is generally B-grade jadeite or C-grade jadeite treated by acid and alkali corrosion. This kind of jadeite is usually a rough stone with poor texture, and the items appearing on the lower surface will slowly fade after long-term wear.
Because these chemicals are harmful to the human body, it is easy to cause certain harm under long-term contact.
If you want to clean the wax on the jade surface, you can soak it in warm water for a few minutes, then take it out and brush it gently with a soft brush.
If you encounter oil stains that are difficult to clean, you can choose to use a neutral and mild hand sanitizer for cleaning. Pay attention to using a soft wet cloth when wiping, and wipe off the dirty place of jadeite in one direction.
After the stain is treated, rinse the jade again.
Of course, you can also choose to use an ultrasonic cleaner to clean. Except for organic solvents such as pearls, no matter what kind of jade ornaments, they should be cleaned every 30 days or so.
At the same time, alcohol is also a safety hazard. Don't leave jade ornaments in high temperature environment for a long time.
Because there are many structures in jadeite, if it is exposed to high temperature for a long time, it is likely that the crystalline water inside will evaporate, leading to dryness or discoloration, and even cracking in severe cases.
