2. Use beer for cleaning

Beer helps to keep the gold chain looking sparkly. Don’t put the gold chain in the beer to clean it. Just take a soft cloth and pour a bit of beer on it, softly scrub it until you find the gold chain back to its original shine.

3. Peroxide solution

Take a teaspoon of ammonia, one or three teaspoons of hydrogen peroxide, a little laundry detergent, and ½ cup of lukewarm water. Soak your gold chain jewelry in this mixture for 5-10 minutes, take them out, rinse it properly under running water and dry the jewelry. While going for this method, everything should be carried out cautiously. You will find your jewelry gleaming like never before. You will be amazed at how perfectly your gold chain jewelry will look after this treatment.

4. Soak a gold chain in boiled water

Let’s make the heat give things up. Another easiest method to clean your gold chain is to give it a boiling bath. Sounds scary? No, do not worry. It is the most safest and effective method to give your gold chain a deep cleaning. Firstly place the gold chain in a large bowl, then boil 1 bowl of water, and now pour it carefully over the chain until it’s fully covered. Submerging the gold chain into the hot water will abolish all the oil, buildup, and grime. Leave the chain in the hot water until it cools down. After that gently scrub the chain with a soft cloth. 

5. Ultrasonic cleaning method

An ultrasonic cleaner is best in jewelry maintenance. It is a device that releases higher frequency sound flow to create distress in water and remove the dirt and debris from the links of your gold chain. You will simply place your gold chain inside the device which will clean it thoroughly with the use of smaller and fast vibrations. You can make use of an ultrasonic cleanser with your soap solution.

6. Use toothpaste for cleaning

This is the quickest and easiest way to clean your gold chain jewelry. Rub the toothpaste onto your gold chain and let it sit for a while. Use a soft toothbrush to rub the toothpaste on your chain. Then rinse your gold chain properly in lukewarm water and dry it well. Do the process gently so that the chain does not get any scratches.

7. Avoid using harsh chemicals

When cleaning your gold chains, ensure to avoid harsh chemicals like acetone, nail polish remover, bleach, and chlorine. As harsh chemicals will react violently with your gold chain necklaces and will cause structural damage to your jewelry. So we recommend avoiding harsh chemicals to keep your gold chain safe.

If your gold chain necklaces are exposed to sweat, perfume, body lotion, dust, sand, etc, ensure to clean them. Try to regularly clean your gold chain necklaces with just water and a soft brush. This will help you to save your time in the long run when it comes to keeping your gold chain more shiny and lustrous.

Knowing how to store your gold chain necklaces will help to prevent them from getting dull when you are not wearing them. Here’s how to store your gold chains:

  • After removing your gold chain necklaces, put them in a jewelry box.
  • A clean fabric-lined jewelry box is the perfect option for storing gold chains.
  • If you want to place more than one piece of gold chain in a jewelry box, ensure to wrap every single piece in a soft cloth and place them in a safe place.

10. Schedule cleaning yearly

All the above-mentioned tips are the perfect ways to clean and take care of your gold chain jewelry regularly. However, we advise you to have your fine gold chain jewelry professionally cleaned yearly for preventative care. Jewelers can thoroughly check for any loose-fitted prongs, tangles, and other damage so that you ensure that you don’t wind up breaking your gold chain necklaces.
