Default Alcohol and diamonds?!
The other day I cleaned my diamonds with alcohol, and guess what?..they look super sparkly. Maybe while you`re reading this you`re thinking AND NOW YOU DISCOVER THIS!!...but i never taught they could look so good when you clean them with acohol.
And, if like me, didnt`s know this, try!

HAHA I thought when I read your title that you were talking about some new addicts organization! But that's a good idea, I'll have to try that!

Alcohol works great! I've been using it for a couple of years now and it really cleans well.

lol...I thought the title meant something else as well!
So, how do you clean your diamonds with alcohol? Wait, we're talking about RUBBING alcohol right? Do you fill a little cup and submerge your jewelry in it or just wipe it?

totoro928... depending on the size of the rocks you gently wipe then with a Q-tip or a piece of fabric soaked into alcohol.


totoro and lantana: now im seriously considering funding an organization named Booze and Tiffany`s...lol

hahaha... I thought maybe you had a bit too much to drink and bought diamonds!!

I've used alcohol to clean my rings as well. It does work great!
