Mine arrives today!
Mine arrives today!
Thanks @Texas Leaguer! That explains why I'm sometimes not happy with the steam results. I was soaking the jewelry in my usual warm water/Dawn bath before hitting the steam but didn't realize I wasn't getting a deep clean. Now I have all the proper tools to get that fresh from the jeweler look.I haven't seen this company mentioned in the thread. They have a variety of ultrasonics and steam cleaners.

The one/two punch of ultrasonic and steam is the optimal method of really getting a pro level clean. A good maintenance regime would be regular ultrasonic and occasional steam. For the steam to be fully effective the dirt and film must be loosened up. The ultrasonic does that, but does not always get all the dirt off. The steam takes care of the residual.
This one looks pretty cool - both ultrasonic and steam in one machine:

You will love it!! I just want to rush home from work today and clean more jewelry.Mine arrives today!
Do it !You will love it!! I just want to rush home from work today and clean more jewelry.![]()
I do one run with some dawn detergent, then a rinse with clean water. And take a light brush to the bling and you'll have clean jewels.As soon as I got home today I used mine! I’m hoping I’m doing something right with the daily care as there wasn’t anything in the tank (besides water, of course) after I ran it. But my rings sure look pretty!!!
Yep. This is how I did it too. I do clean my main two rings each day with a soft toothbrush, a bit of Dawn, and warm water. So I think that’s why very little came off in the US cleaner. I saw more cloudy water with my older jewelry that has been sitting in my jewelry box, though.I do one run with some dawn detergent, then a rinse with clean water.

I've never heard of a Kim wipe. I'll have to check that out. Bet that would be good on wine glasses too!I also have the same ultrasonic as pinto bean and white wave and just wanted to add that drying with a Kim wipe is really helpful as well! It leaves no lint at all. Got that tip from someone on this forum!
I think those are the papers you'd use in science class on the lens of a microscopeI've never heard of a Kim wipe. I'll have to check that out. Bet that would be good on wine glasses too!
