There are several ways to clean gold. Here we explain the methods that work best for us!
Cleaning with neutral pH soap and water:
If the jewelry is not filthy, or you want it to have the same shine as the first day, you can have your jewelry clean and shiny in just a few minutes. All you need are three tools and a few minutes of your time.
1. Prepare a bowl of warm water, soap and a cotton cloth, and you're ready to go!
2. Once ready, add a few drops of NEUTRAL pH soap or dishwashing soap to the bowl of warm water.
3. Mix well and allow the jewel to soak in the water for 10 minutes.
4. Finally, with the cotton cloth, gently rub the surface of the piece you want to clean and dry it delicately.
If your jewelry needs more cleaning, you can also use a soft-bristled brush to rub the dirty surface. This trick will help you reach all the nooks and crannies of the piece. You will need to dip the brush into the mixture and rub the piece. Do it gently so as not to scratch or scrape it.
Clean the jewelry with the silver cleaning wipe:
If there is a method that does not leave us indifferent, it is cleaning with the silver cleaning wipe, as it is easy, fast, effective and does not damage the jewel, this would be with our chamois (impregnated with cleaning agents designed specifically for silver and gold-plated). Just rub the wipe gently over the jewelry, and you'll leave it as beautiful as ever, making it shine like new again!
It is reusable, so you can use it over and over again without any problem. You will notice that the chamois gets black, do not panic, nothing happens, this black does not come from the dirt of the gold-plated silver, but from the chemical reaction that occurs when rubbing.
WARNING: We do not recommend that you wash the wipe, since it is impregnated with a cleaning component, if you wash it, it will lose the properties that make your jewelry shine like the first day.

Clean the jewelry with Aladdin Sidol:
But if the jewel is already filthy, the infallible method is the silver cleaner Aladdin Sidol, a magic cotton that you only have to rub with the jewel to make it perfect, yes, not being solid gold, it is preferable not to clean them very often with this method, only when we believe that it is really necessary. The most important thing in plated jewelry is to take care of them properly, we advise you to visit our article on how to care for gold jewelry.
Unlike unplated silver, gold-plated jewelry tarnishes much less. So cleaning methods are more sparse and delicate.
