I took my ring to a jeweler to get cleaned today, and all of the issues with sidestone cloudiness went away!

Haha! Wouldn't it be great if that would apply to all our life's problems?!?!
 
I just don't understand why you can't obtain this clean diamond by yourself?

Did you try with Dawn liquid soap, hot water and child teethbrush?
 
yes I think the problem is that the gunk is on the underside of the diamond, which is really hard to reach with the toothbrush especially the way it is set.
 
YAY!!!! :))
 
That was easy! I'm glad for you!
 
Wonderful! Happy diamonds make a happy girl! Enjoy!
 
:appl: And a cheap solution ::)
 
yes, free :) I wonder if I should invest in an ultrasonic-would that take care of this problem? it's not really a pain to go to the jeweler every few months though...
 
I bought an ultrasonic on ebay for 30 with free shipping... it's a no name brand- plug in type with a metal basket inside as opposed to plastic (where the water is held). It does a great job and saves me from the headache of making the 30 min round trip montly- i can clean it weekly or even daily at home :bigsmile:
 
Yay slg! I'm glad to hear this was no big deal. You must be so relieved. :))
 
I'm really glad for you!!!
