This issue was brought up in a pave thread and since I have a pave setting, I am curious to know what the experts think. Someone speculated that cleaning with an ammonia solution could damage/weaken the pave-set stones. Any truth to that? I have been using an ammonia/dish soap/hot water combo with a baby toothbrush and it really gets things sparkling! Should I not be doing this? If not, what way of cleaning pave is ok? Thanks!

Ive never heard that. I would think if you havent had a problem now, you likely won't, just don't brush too roughly.

That's what I figured. Everything looks fine, even under a loupe! Most of the time I don't even use the toothbrush - the mixture and hot water does just fine! Thanks...
