How to Care for Your Gold Plated Jewelry
-
Do not spray on perfume or other sprays while wearing your gold-plated jewelry.
-
Wait until your lotion or cream is dry or has been absorbed by your skin before you wear your gold plated ring, bracelet or necklace.
-
Substances like oil, nail polish, nail polish remover, chlorine, and perfume may react with metal/plated jewelry and cause it to fade. Avoid wearing while working out.
-
After use, clean your plated jewelry with a cotton ball or soft cloth to remove any dust and dirt. Gently rubbing the surface of your gold plated jewelry using a soft jewelry cloth, helps restore shine. Do not use a polishing cloth as this will strip away the plating.
-
If your jewelry needs more cleaning you may clean it with warm, soapy water. Soak it for a few minutes and dry with a soft cloth. Stay away from jewelry cleaners and antibacterial soaps which may have certain components that will make your gold plated jewelry fade.
-
To avoid scratches, wrap your jewelry in a soft cloth after cleaning or keep it in a jewelry box separate from other types of jewelry. Small zip-locks work great.
-
Store like items together. Do not store gold plating and silver plating together. The different metals will cause each other to fade and/or turn colors. Have different storage places for different colors of metals like gold and rose gold. Store in a dry area.
