Do you use a "cleaning agent" in your ultrasonic cleaner?

[Bosie]

Besides water, do you put anything else in the ultrasonic to clean your diamond and setting?

I have two solutions - 1/3 ammonia, 2/3 water and a drop of dish soap for my plat. stuff
water, a few sprays of windex and a bit more dish soap for my gold stuff

Just Sunlight a squirt or two and I use boiling water. Used to use windex(has a little amonia in it) as well but found it just caused more residue than without so abandoned using it.
We also Jewel Jet steam dry them afterwards.

I want a jewel jet, badly.

Is it wrong just to buy those drop in jewelry cleaners that you see in department stores?

Cheesehead, that is what I was wondering also.

I use a mix of dish soap, hot water and spic and span or ammonia free windex in my u/s. I mix a new batch every time I use the u/s.

I just use water and a cap full of Mr.Clean.Oh and I always make sure its hot water.

I generally just use hot water.
