In recent years, the turquoise market is hot and deeply loved by literary friends. It has the softness and natural charm of jade, and the process of slowly changing color when playing with it is also intoxicating. However, many players who have just arrived in into the pit will encounter such a situation. I just bought turquoise, and it didn't take long for white spots to appear on it.

Did you take your medicine?

Rule out buying fakes, and prevent alkali. This is caused by improper maintenance of disk play, which is very likely in the process of disk play.

What is alkali resistance? Alkali resistance refers to the unnatural phenomenon that turquoise presents irregular white spots in the process of playing, but it is different from "white whistle". The main reasons for improper maintenance are as follows:

1. Soak turquoise in tap water. Many players like to soak turquoise in water, but some friends mistakenly use tap water to soak it. Bleaching powder in tap water will do harm to turquoise. The correct way is to soak and clean with pure water.

2. Sweat and play. The dust in the air, as well as the dirty things on your hands, attach to the turquoise when you play with your sweaty hands, slowly invade the interior, and form white spots in the later stage. So be sure to keep your hands clean before playing with any turquoise or even Wan Wen! Of course, take cotton gloves to play at the end of the early stage.

3. The water on the turquoise surface evaporates. Sometimes, if you don't wear it for a long time or expose it to the sun, the water on the surface of turquoise will evaporate, and it is easy to turn white and "anti-alkali".

What should I do if there is alkali resistance? In fact, knowing the reason why turquoise is alkali resistant, it is easy to avoid this situation. The person in charge of purchasing of Yuanbao Natural Gem Museum told me that turquoise is soaked in pure water 1 night, then washed with clean white towel, changed with water, soaked for 2 nights, so that turquoise can be fully cleaned and absorbed, and then washed with colorless cotton cloth, and it can be played normally.

After playing for a while, these white spots will disappear by themselves, and your turquoise will be as beautiful as ever.

Playing requires patience and change little by little. Long-term play, moisturizing turquoise, slowly forming patina, so it is not easy to appear alkali-resistant phenomenon, but it is getting better and better!
