FH bought my ring at a private jeweler. I can take it back 2x per year for a free inspection and cleaning. I think some other stores have policies like that. Also, a jeweler gave me a bottle of liquid cleaner that you can dunk your ring in. If you go in a jewelry store and ask, they'll probably have some product available.
My future sister in law is a jeweler which is actually where my FH got my ring. As part of a small 'engagement present', she gave me a cleaning solution and a diamond cleaning gel stick. I can't think of the brand for the life of me but I know it says Frank and Fran's on it which is the name of the jewelry store she works for in Wantagh.
shaving cream and water keeps your rings super clean and shiny!! :)
I bring it to my jeweler he cleans it unlimited for free
What kind of shaving cream?!?! Like the cheap Barbasol? Or like Skintimate?
Whenever FH and I are at the mall or near a jewelry store we go in and ask if they can steam it, usually they'll do it for free, especially if you start looking at wedding bands. They want your business. I bought a stick of gel cleanser at some point too. In a pinch last week I used a little bit of simple hand soap and warm water with a dispoable mascara brush. The bowl was absolutely clean and empty and after a soak for about 15 minutes, I could see a bunch of crud in the boal and more after I lightly scrubbed the setting. Of course I looked it up online before I did it to make sure it would be safe.
my jeweler told me to soak my ring in hot water with a little ammonia in it.. it gets out all the dirt that can't be reached with a tooth brush alone. Then I use the tooth brush and hot water to scrub after I soak it.. makes it look BRAND NEW!!!
Thank everyone I will have to stop at a Jewelery store some time to do. I saw at walmart I think it was, a pretty nice cleaner made for rings. It was a bottle with brushes inside,and you would attach your ring to this stem like thing and move up and down,by grabbing on to a handle sticking out lid(bottle was like a large pill bottle filled with brushes). It had a bottle of jewelry cleaner also included. Does anyone have this for around house, or would you buy? Kind of like toothbrush idea in a bottle...

I bought this jewelry cleaner from target. Its called connoisseurs. They have one specifically for gold/diamond etc. It comes with the tray to dip it in the solution and a brush to clean/scrub it under warm water. I love it! Cheap and it works great!
I just got the Connoisseur cleaner too and it works great! I also heard that a few drops of Dawn dish soap in warm water is another way to keep your ring nice and sparkly - and super cheap too! :)
How often should I be cleaning my ring?? I take mine off for the shower and when I put lotion on and stuff.

Have this as well! Works great!
My ring came from Kay, and they will inspect and clean twice a yr.
get it steamed at a jeweler for sure! it came out so much nicer than the twice yearly cleaning the original jeweler did!
My MIL suggested soaking the ring in dishwashing liquid and warm water for a few minutes ina small tupperware thing. Works like a charm :)
my jeweler suggested soap and soft tooth brush...ive done it several times already and it works great.
