Does this cleaner remove "ear crud" from earrings? The free stuff from the jewelry store doesn't cut it!

Honestly, I haven't used it on earrings but my guess would be yes. I say yes because I left my wedding and engagement ring in this solution over night and the next morning, there was so much crud that came out of all the little holes under my diamonds that I never even knew was there.

Just the jewelry cleaner type. They are relatively inexpensive at harbor freight.

Since writing this review, I have switched to Tarnex, a similar cleanser excellent results for silver polish available at CVS, and Home depot. Give it a shot. I make jewelry and wear alot of it and use Tarnex all the time. It was recommended by the jeweler who made custom jewelry and did my soldering in town. Good luck. Hagertys used to make a black bottle silver polish that was excellent -very thick paste. Tarnex is thinner and very effective more so than Hagerty's in my book. Let me know what you think.

Yea just use water. I've heard of people using hydrogen peroxide but I find it better to let the earwax removal drops do their magic and then flush it out with water. You have to push the water fairly hard and then let the water drain out for a while.

Organic gemstones such as pearls, amber, coral, and ivory should not be cleaned in an ultrasonic cleaner or cleaned with an abrasive or ammonia based cleaner. Your emeralds and diamonds should be just fine if they are in a sturdy setting. A good discussion of the do's and don'ts of this topic, including your emeralds, is available at the site All About Gemstones, here: http://www.allaboutgemstones.com/jewelry_cleaning.html

I truly don't know but my wife used it on her diamond as well as a fake emarald. Neither was noticably cleaner after using it though.

Cleaning Do not take earplugs apart. Clean after each use. Wipe clean with a damp cloth as needed. Do not immerse earplugs in water. Do not clean with harsh chemicals. Alcohol is not recommended.

Sometimes even just a small amount of earwax can get in an block the speaker hole. I haven't figured out the best way to clean it out. Last time I dipped the silent earbud carefully into the highest concentration rubbing alcohol I could find, so that the hole that lets the sound out (after you've taken off the silicon tip) was immersed, but no further, so as not to let the liquid touch something electronic. It soaked overnight and I took it out to dry for a while, and the sound was back to normal. Though that worked for me, I don't recommend it unless you're willing to risk destroying the unit.

All I can tell you is that I had a good experience with this on both my dogs. One dog has crumpled ears (from shaking ears and bumping them, which created a hematoma). This solution helped loosen up the dirt and wax buildup so I was able to clean gently with a tissue and q-tips to get inside the creases. That's all I can tell you.

I've not tried to use it to clean silver, as I purchased Brilliant's Silver Cleaner to do mine. It worked really well for silver. This product does just as well for gemstones and gold jewelry.

A clean wipe can be used on the plastic band to clean it, that's about it. The ear pads come off so you could (gently) wash them I suppose.

Amanda, to my knowledge it isn't a good idea to use any chemical cleaner on jewelry with glued in stones. That said, you can use a Q-tip to clean the medal part and not immersing the item completely as the instructions say. Another way to clean jewelry without chemicals is by rubbing toothpaste on the item, then rinsing off with water.

Much better, I bought the wax vac and it was nothing but a joke, because I could never get it to work for me. Now that I use this with warm/room temperature water (not hot or cold) and a little peroxide or sweet oil my ears never get build up like before.

Hi!! I wouldn't suggest this for ear cleaning. For ear cleaning I would suggest what I've used for quite a while it's called Expert Care ear care by Bayer. That's the best ear cleaner I've ever used. The Zymox is really excellent for the chronic itching!!!!!! Hope this helps!!!!

I've used diluted jewelry cleaner solution in the machine to clean gold and precious stones and the result is great. Just remember to rinse the items in water and then polish them with a soft cloth.

It's a jewelry cleaner. It's super easy. Add water and plug it in. I add my rings at the same time.

I got this for Christmas and just tried it - none of my silver jewellery came clean. Neither did the diamond in my wedding ring. Very disappointed!
