How to Clean Diamond Earrings at Home
- 1). Create a solution of warm water and ammonia. Add 1/4 cup of ammonia to 1 cup of warm water in a medium-sized bowl. Place the diamond earrings in the bowl and allow them to sit in the solution for 20 minutes.
- 2). Put on rubber gloves, remove the earring from the ammonia solution and place the earrings into the other bowl, this time containing warm water. Add liquid dishwashing soap, about 1 tsp. Swish the diamond earrings around in the bowl.
- 3). Scrub the diamond earrings gently, using a soft toothbrush. Get into the areas between the diamonds and the prongs that hold the diamonds and around the earring posts. Scrub the earrings until they shine.
- 4). Rinse the earrings in warm water. Lay the earrings on a soft cloth, in a safe place, until they are dry. Lightly polish the earrings with the cloth.
