WHAT SHOULD YOU NOT CLEAN A DIAMOND RING WITH?

THE ANSWER

Toothpaste. It is abrasive and scratches gold and platinum. Bleach and chlorine damage metal and can loosen glue in some settings. Baking soda is too gritty for polished surfaces. Hydrogen peroxide is safe for the diamond but can harm certain metal finishes. Hand sanitiser leaves a residue that dulls the stone over time. Abrasive cloths scratch metal. Boiling water can crack some gemstones and warp delicate settings. Acetone and nail polish remover are too harsh. Stick to warm water and mild dish soap. It is boring but it works without risking damage.
