brushed platinum question

[scud77]

I am a male with a brushed platinum wedding band (I was married on 4/29). Does anyone have any insights into whether or not all the scratches that are already on my ring from normal wear (maybe I shouldn''t have kept it on in the ocean or something??) can be fixed so the "scratches" have the brushed look again?

If there is nothing I can do it isn''t a big deal... I suppose they are only really noticable close up. I think I read somewhere that some people have decided to have their rings polished to the point that the brushed look goes away. This wouldn''t be my first choice.

Just hoping to get a little smarter on this topic, if possible, before I give the jeweler call.

Thanks!

the brushed finish just needs to be reapplied. if yours isn''t the pretty much standard brush finish, you might have to go back to your original jeweler to get it exactly the same.

No worries - a jeweler can just reapply it.

that is great news. Thank you both!

I just got my polished platinum set transformed into matte (or satin) finish platinum. The woman at the jeweler''s said that shiny polished plat and brushed/satin/sandblasted are all finishes that need maintenance. There is no finish that won''t need "fixin''" now and then, but most jewelers can do it for you.
