How It Works
The cleaning process begins with a bath in an ultrasonic machine using a special cleaning solution. The vibration of the liquid loosens all the dirt and grime. The ring is then removed and rinsed with fresh water and steamed. Afterwards the goldsmith does a thorough inspection of the claws, making sure they are in good condition and all diamonds are secure. Any issues will be noted and the owner contacted to give them a price if a repair is needed.
Now, it’s time to buff and polish. Using a buff wheel and a compound specific to the type of metal (white gold, yellow gold, platinum etc.) The ring is buffed to a high polish both inside and out! Then, it’s back to the ultrasonic machine to remove all the excess compound. We’re almost done now…just another rinse and steam.
