Your wedding ring is something you hold close to your heart. It symbolizes the love and the life that you and your partner will share. It is something that will be worn till the end and if it is in good shape, it might even be passed down in the family. You can create your own diamond ring to make it even more special. But, you might have noticed the ring losing its initial charm and beauty as time passes. This might be due to dust and dirt accumulating on the surface and inside of the ring. But, it is really tiring to go to the jeweler frequently to get the ring cleaned. Here are a few ways that will help you maintain your wedding diamond ring.

Do Not Touch It

The diamond is probably the highlight of your ring. Each time you touch the shiny stone, its luster decreases. Dirt and dust from the things you touch stick to your hands and will get transferred to the diamond when you touch it. Eventually, the oil, dust, and dirt will reduce the shine of the diamond.

Another reason why you should not touch your diamond ring is lotions and creams. Lotions and creams can diminish the brightness of the diamond. Therefore, make sure you remove your ring before you apply cream or lotions.

Clean Your Ring Regularly

Using Soap Water

This is the most common method used to clean a diamond ring. All you have to do is, immerse the ring in water with soap, handwash, body wash, or shampoo. After soaking the ring in the solution for 20 to 40 minutes, clean it using a brush with soft bristles as using hard bristles can cause scratches.

Using a Jewellery Cleaning Solution

There are a variety of cleaning solutions available in the market. Therefore, you have to be careful before you choose one. It is advised to use solutions containing not more than 50 percent ammonia as more of it can damage the diamond. Also, if your ring has other gemstones, do not use a cleaning solution as it might damage your gemstones.

To clean the ring,  immerse it in the solution. Follow the instructions and set a timer so that you do not forget to remove it from the solution.

Using Ultrasonic Jewelry Cleaner

This method is the easiest method to clean a diamond ring. You have to fill the ultrasonic cleaner with a soap solution and place the ring inside for 1 to 2 minutes  to get it cleaned.
