The maintenance of jewelry varies from person to person. Many people have their own experience on how to maintain jewelry. However, some people have never taken good care of the jewelry they wear, so that many years later the jewelry is very old and no longer has the luster of the past. In particular, if gold jewelry is not maintained for many years, it will soon lose its luster. Here are some simple precautions and maintenance methods, It can make gold jewelry more shiny in daily wear
first, gold jewelry is not suitable for contact with these articles, which will cause some reactions and make gold jewelry overshadowed
1. Gold jewelry is afraid of some alkaline and acidic substances, so attention should be paid to avoid contact with these substances. For example, some chlorinated substances, lactic acid, urea ammonia, etc. will react with gold jewelry and cause color change of gold jewelry
2. In daily articles, especially the lead containing articles with extremely heavy chemical substances such as hair dye, cannot touch the gold jewelry, which will immediately turn black; In addition, some cosmetics such as perfume and hair gel contain more mercury, which will react with gold to turn white and form "gold amalgam" on the surface
3. It is popular to wear mixed and matched jewelry. However, some precious metals cannot be worn with gold jewelry, or they will react and change color. These precious metals are platinum, palladium, aluminum, tin, etc. as long as they are rubbed after contact, there will be white spots on the surface of gold jewelry
4. Some people have a fast metabolism and are prone to sweat. Some components contained in sweat can react with gold jewelry and produce silver chloride and copper sulfide, which will cause some gloss of gold jewelry to be covered and dim, or even turn black and fade in some parts. This is also a very normal phenomenon. There is no need to worry. After cleaning and maintenance, the previous gloss can be restored
5. If there are personnel working in the chemical laboratory or Infirmary, the gold jewelry will also change color and lose gloss due to the influence of the environment. This is also a very normal phenomenon. In a dry environment, it will also become dirt and lose gloss due to the dust in the air. This is a normal reaction, and there is no need to worry
2. What should be done if the gold jewelry is discolored or faded
1. If the gold jewelry is discolored due to the wear of the changing surface and the residue of dirt, it can be restored by simple cleaning. If there is a neutral jewelry cleaning agent, it can be directly used for cleaning. If there is no such agent, it can be diluted with a mild detergent at home and then cleaned. You can use a soft toothbrush to gently wipe the dirt on the surface. However, you need to wash these substances with water and wipe them with a soft cloth
2. If the simple cleaning of gold jewelry is not enough to remove the discoloration and discoloration, it is necessary to send it to the jewelry store where you buy it for professional maintenance and cleaning. Generally, professional technicians will carry out maintenance according to the situation. Finally, the gold jewelry that you have in your hand must be as shiny as new. It is because only professional technicians will over handle the gold jewelry and burn the dirt on the surface, and this heat will not cause damage to the gold jewelry
III. how to maintain gold jewelry worn at ordinary times
1. The surface of jewelry should be kept clean even if it is often worn, especially the back of gold jewelry, such as earrings and bracelets, which are easy to be ignored. These back surfaces are easy to accumulate dust and dirt, and need to be cleaned regularly. It is very easy to clean in a few minutes, but it avoids the breeding of bacteria brought by jewelry
2. Avoid close contact with perfume, hair gel and other daily necessities. If you encounter these daily necessities with high chemical content, please clean them in time, otherwise it will easily lead to the fading of gold jewelry
3. It is better not to wear gold jewelry because of the need to swim and soak in hot springs. The chemical substances in the water are too heavy to react with the gold jewelry, resulting in the change of chemical reaction on the surface
4. Ladies who often need to cook in the kitchen and other places with oil smoke must remember to avoid exposure of gold jewelry. Jewelry that can not be covered, such as rings, should not be worn as much as possible. Even if they need to be worn, they should be cleaned frequently. Gold jewelry is too easy to be covered by oil smoke and lose luster
5. Gold jewelry is soft and easy to deform. Once deformed, it will be very ugly without the texture of gold jewelry. Do not pull the jewelry during daily wear. Remember that it is very soft and cannot be pulled. If it is deformed, please go to the store for repair in time
6. Don't stack all the jewelry that you don't wear together. Instead, you need to separate them or put them in jewelry bags to prevent the friction reaction of jewelry. Only when you take care of jewelry will it be as bright as new
in short, although jewelry can't speak, it can express its own situation by means of discoloration, fading, dullness, deformation, etc., so it needs the care of the owner when wearing it. After all, jewelry is the finishing point of clothing and can make you more distinguished. Then there is no reason why we don't take care of jewelry. Only by careful care can we always wear it
with the improvement of living standards, consumers demand more and more jewelry. When buying new jewelry, they will also consider how to maintain old gold jewelry. Let old gold jewelry shine like new. As a master of jewelry for many years, I still know something about this. Let me share it with you
first, when jewelry is not worn, it should be stored separately to avoid friction. This is especially true for glossy gold rings, bracelets, snake bone necklaces and some delicate jewelry
Second, it is not suitable to wear jewelry during exercise, sleep, sauna steam bath, hot spring, or household chores. The reason for this is to avoid chemical reactions between chemicals, bleach, sweat, etc. and the jewelry surface. In particular, don't wear gold jewelry when taking a steam bath or hot spring bath, because gold has a high heat transfer rate, and the heat in the steam room will burn the skin through the gold. It is not recommended to wear it in hot springs, for fear that the gold necklace will float
Third, avoid wearing with platinum and silver jewelry, because metal friction will leave white marks on the surface of gold jewelry. In this case, you can take it back to the jewelry store for treatment
many friends think that as long as there is no problem with the purity of gold, there should not be any change on the surface. If the red and white spots are unacceptable, they think it is the problem of the gold content, which is not necessarily the case
gold jewelry easily reacts with silver and other metals, and the iron element in the air adheres to the surface of gold jewelry. When it reacts with the air, white spots and red spots will also appear. This is a normal phenomenon. Take it back to the jewelry store and let professionals handle it
IV. gold jewelry needs to be maintained. Taking it back to the jewelry store for cleaning regularly can avoid many problems. In addition to regular cleaning and renovation, professional maintenance personnel should check whether there are loose, broken and worn places and repair them in time
first, after wearing gold jewelry for a long time, the chloride, lactic acid, urea ammonia in the sweat produced by the human body will react with the copper and silver in the gold to produce black chemical salts . However, this kind of dirt treatment method is very simple. Add a little alcohol to the soapy water to scrub and dry it
Second, most women will produce a black silver film after wearing gold jewelry. this is because women use cosmetics, cosmetics containing chemical substances and gold that is most afraid of chemical substances will react with each other. this will produce a black silver film, which will wear the gold. This cleaning method will be a little troublesome. It requires 2G of salt, 7g of baking soda, 8g of bleach powder and 60ml of water, Prepare a gold cleaner, put the jewelry directly in this cleaner, and after 2 hours, take out the jewelry to restore the previous gloss
in fact, some commonly used daily necessities can also achieve the effect of cleaning at home. For example, take a soft toothbrush and dip it in a little toothpaste, brush the dirt on the jewelry, and then rinse it with water. It can also make it shiny and bright as new. In particular, the cleaning of gold rings is more troublesome, because there are many blind spots that can not be cleaned, and it is easy to stick dirty things. You need to use a toothpick. If it's troublesome, you can also add salt and crude oil together, throw the ring into the inside and soak it. After half an hour, take it out, rinse it with water and dry it
gold has many characteristics and is very fragile. When you wear gold jewelry, you should understand the relevant precautions and the basic methods of gold jewelry maintenance, so as to maintain its life more long
