For best results, use distilled water to prevent mineral deposits. Ensure jewelry is fully submerged and touching the aluminum foil for optimal cleaning. This cleaner is designed for tarnish removal; heavily soiled pieces may require additional cleaning. Do not reuse the cleaning solution; prepare a fresh batch each time for maximum effectiveness. Suitable for sterling silver, gold, and jewelry with durable gemstones. Exercise caution with porous stones and always test in an inconspicuous area first.

StepBegin by heating the water in a microwave-safe container for 1 to 2 minutes, until hot but not boiling. (Time: 1-2 minutes)
02
StepLine a cereal bowl with a sheet of aluminum foil, ensuring the foil covers the bottom surface. Carefully pour the heated water into the foil-lined bowl. (Time: 1 minute)
