Kalonfleur Jewelry Care Guide – Cleaning & Maintaining Silver-Plated Jewelry

Professional Cleaning Procedures

• Tarnish Removal
  Use a professional silver polishing cloth (we recommend the dual-sided Sunshine Cloth). Follow these guidelines:
  ✔️ Always wipe in a single direction with minimal pressure (let the cloth’s weight do the work).
  ✔️ Limit to 3 gentle passes per square centimeter area.
  ✔️ Replace the cloth immediately if discoloration occurs (dedicate one cloth per jewelry piece).

  Critical Notes:

• Avoid tissues/paper towels – their fibers can cause 0.2-0.5μm scratches.
• Reusing dirty cloths may lead to micron-level pitting from residual abrasives.

• Deep Maintenance Routine
  Perform monthly:
  ① Handle jewelry with clean cotton gloves to prevent oil transfer.
  ② Soak in pH-neutral jewelry cleaner (pH 6.5-7.5) for 90 seconds.
  ③ Dry with a high-density microfiber cloth (1200 GSM or higher).
  ④ Store in a sealed anti-tarnish pouch (include silica gel packs for humidity control).

Usage Precautions
❌ Strictly prohibited:

• Showering or swimming while wearing jewelry – soap residues create a hydrophobic film that attracts pollutants.
• Bleach-based cleaners – sodium hypochlorite causes metal embrittlement through oxidation.
• Toothpaste or baking soda – calcium carbonate abrasives degrade plating at 2-5μm per cleaning cycle.
