This week`s tool: ShineBrite Silver Dip, #CLN-856.08

Video by Kate, JewelryTools.com

This week`s featured tool from JewelryTools.com is the CLN-856.08, a nearly-instant cleaner that will take off tarnish, oxidation, and even liver of sulfur, if you want it to. Simply place your jewelry in the basket, dunk it for 2 minutes, and your jewelry will be sparkling clean. A soft toothbrush will take care of any remaining tarnish. Rinse in warm water and towel dry your jewelry – it`s done in a cinch.Since this is a detergent on the stronger side, keep your soft stones like opal and organic stones like pearl and shell away from it.If you`ve worked with liver of sulphur before, and you realize this cleaner will take that off, imagine how it must obliterate tarnish! Great for cleaning up after small shows. This product comes in a 6-pack from JewelryTools, so save a few for you and give some to your best clients (or sell them at the show). Simply dunk and rinse!

    Other than the stones mentioned above, can you use it on other semi-precious stones – turquoise – jasper – fossil – agate – etc? Thank you.

      Hi Jeanette, turquoise and fossil I would not use it on. Jasper and agate are hard stones so they would be safe.

    Does this also remove the green tarnish on 14kt gold filled?

    Would this product be safe on silver plated jewelry? Or is there a particular product that will help clean silver plated jewelry?

      Hi Marilyn, it should be safe on silver-plated jewelry.

    Don’t used on colored coral, as the coral will Bleed.

    I wonder if this can be used on dyed stones, like dyed jade or howlite.

    What about dipping copper in it? Or is there a dip for copper? I tried white vinegar, which helped some, but only for a short time.
