Your Moissanite and Lab-Diamond Ring Cleaning Guide
At TMC Fine Jewellers, we understand that your ring is a symbol of your enduring love and commitment, an heirloom. It tells your story, the start of a life together, a vow made in love, and the legacy you’ll carry forward. Because you don’t just wear jewellery; you wear the meaning behind it. You wear, forever.
To keeping your heirloom piece in its most beautiful condition, for a lifetime of love, intentional care is key. Here’s everything you need to know about how you can care for your moissanite or lab-grown diamond engagement ring at home.
How to Clean Your Engagement Ring at Home
With everyday wear, exposure to beauty products, dirt, and natural oils may make your moissanite or lab-grown diamond engagement ring appear dull. This is completely normal and happens to all fine jewellery, but with regular cleaning, your heirloom piece will maintain its beauty, and brilliance, effortlessly.
What You’ll Need:
- Mild Dish Soap
- Hot Water
- Soft Toothbrush
- Polishing Cloth
- Paper Towel
- Small Bowl
Step-by-Step Cleaning Guide:
-
Fill a small bowl with warm water and a few drops of mild dish soap. Stir gently to create a soapy solution.
-
Place your ring in the bowl and let it soak for a few minutes to loosen any buildup.
-
Using a soft toothbrush, gently scrub your moissanite or lab-grown diamond ring, focusing on all crevices, especially the underside of the centre stone where buildup accumulates.
-
Rinse your ring thoroughly under warm running water. The water pressure will help remove any remaining soap residue.
- Pat your ring dry with a paper towel or microfibre cloth, then polish it gently with your TMC Fine Jewellers polishing cloth.
For best results, we recommend cleaning your ring weekly to maintain its brilliance.
Should You Get Your Ring Professionally Cleaned?
While at-home cleaning keeps your ring looking beautiful, an annual professional clean will restore its lustre and ensure its longevity.
We are confident in the exceptional quality of our gemstones, precious metals and meticulous craftsmanship, which is why all engagement, ceremonial and fine jewellery pieces include complimentary lifetime servicing.
We understand that with time and wear, fine scratches, dents, and loose prongs can occur. Our expert jewellers conduct a thorough inspection, professionally clean and polish your ring, and tighten prongs if needed. Rhodium plating is also available upon request.
Simply book your ring drop-off appointment if you're based in Brisbane or Sydney, or get in touch with our friendly team via email and we can support you in sending your ring back to us for your complimentary servicing. We’re here for you and your journey.
