Cleaning cheap jewelry?

[maddysmum]

Is there a way to freshen up cheap jewelry?

I have a set of "gold" bangles that I'd like to wear to a wedding. I don't want to buy another set when I have perfectly good ones already, but they're a little tarnished.

Does anyone have a home remedy or product suggestion to clean them up?

I'm not really stressing damaging them since I can't wear them as is, anyway.

Thanks!

I would try windex.

Or do you own a sonic jewelry cleaner? You could put it in there in water, not the cleanser. I think the cleanser might take off some of the gold color.

I use the Connoisseur jewelry cleaner on everything, whether it's real or not. Before I had that, I'd just use baking soda mixed with a little water to make a paste.

I honestly always figured w/ cheap jewelry once it changed color there was no getting it back. If you try something and it works would you please share.

My jeweler told me to use dish soap on all my jewelry. Just scrub it in with a toothbrush. Worked on everything I've tried without damaging it.
