About Stainless Steel Jewelry Stainless steel jewelry is made of a steel alloy that contains chromium. The good thing about stainless steel is that it does not corrode or rust. Stainless steel jewelry is pretty easy to clean. Simply follow these steps: 1. Pour some warm water in a small bowl, and add some mild dishwashing soap. 2. Dip a soft, lint-free cloth in the soapy water, and then gently wipe the stainless steel jewelry with the damp cloth until the piece is clean cleaning it, rub the item along its polish lines. 3. Wipe the remaining soap off your jewelry using a moist cloth dipped in clean water. 4. Dry the jewelry well with a clean towel, and then leave your pieces to air dry. After your stainless steel jewelry is clean, you can use a jewelry polish or a polishing cloth to shine it. Some people use toothpaste to clean the especially dirty spots of their stainless steel pieces. Keep in mind, however, that toothpaste is abrasive. If you decide to use it for cleaning, make sure it is a non-whitening brand that does not contain silica, and use a soft cloth to rub the paste onto your piecestaining and Storing Stainless Steel Jewelry Although stainless steel jewelry doesn’t tarnish or corrode and doesn’t require special care, it can scratch. That’s why you should wear and store your pieces in a way that minimizes any contact with other items that can damage your stainless steel jewelry. If your jewelry does get scratched, you can always have it professionally polished by a jeweler. Store your stainless steel pieces separately from jewelry made of other metals. It is best if you keep your stainless steel items in individual bags or pouches.
