Can I use this on costume jewelry? I'm concerned about putting the earring posts through my ears after krylon has dried.

Unless you have very sensitive ears, it should be okay. When I was young and the earring posts were made from some sort of metal (no surgical steel back then for earrings) we would paint the posts with clear nail polish and that would seal off whatever crap that would cause our ears to get infected. Personally, I would be concerned what the Krylon might do to rhinestones, etc. on the earrings, as it could ruin the sparkle & shine. Hope I helped some!

Absolutely. As long as the material using it on is dry the should be no problem.

The rings are stainless steel. As long as you let it air dry, there shouldn't be any problems.

I haven't tried it for that purpose but I was told to buy it to add jewels to my nails and it sucks for that it never seemed to dry, the gems moved for hours after they were put on.

J. Williams, I would think it would work just fine. I used mine for the smallest hole that I could thread an elastic thread through on a product card. The card is only about 1 1/2 inch square, so it was important not to have something any bigger than the thread....and leaving room for the information on the card. It might be worth giving it a try. I just grabbed one of my cards and some earrings. It is not a tight fit. But, with the shape of the 'hook,' they don't just fall off if the card is twisted and turned. I also looked at a earring card that was still in my jewelry box. It is the exact hole size of this card for post type earrings. Hope this helps, Linda

I would hesitate using it on something that delicate. It left a ring on my polyester pants. However, it came out in the wash.

No. It's for real sterling. I tried it on costume plate jewelry and it dulls it forever.

No ma'am. This is for gel polish. It cures under a UV lamp. There is no air or bleow drying.

I'm sorry I don't have the expertise to answer that question, but any competent jeweler should be able to tell you. I know there are certain stones that are not recommended to be used in an ultrasonic cleaner, and especially costume jewelry where the stones are held in place with an adhesive do not fair well ( personal experience) but well mounted stones should not be a problem. When in doubt, a professional jeweler should be consulted.

I don't see how it would harm anything, but I have only used it for sterling and plated silver serving pieces and jewelry. Why not write Hagerty at te address on the jar and ask the experts?

Absolutely, This acrylic holder works great for all the types of my earrings. I would recommend trying this holder. I love it.

I do not know about the Krylon but coating it with resin certainly will as I use it in my glass art. I hope that helps.

It shouldn't be a problem. I've glued these to the backs of metal earrings and I haven't had any issues. They're also pretty powerful. I've picked up a babyfood ar full of paint with one of them attached to the clip on a pen.

If it is leather, you might try it in an inconspicuous place (on the underside of the vest). This particular product dried incredibly shiny and was not flexible... it cracked on my leather furniture. I would not recommend trying it on a piece of clothing that you really like; instead, I would ignore the pin holes.

I'm not a jewelry expert or metallurgist, so I cannot verify that but it began to tarnish after 2 weeks of continual wear. It had a metallic odor therefore I was compelled to remove them from my ears. I was going to make gifts and give them away but I can't now. If your thinking of buying, I don't recommend this product!!!

I have not had a problem with any jewelry I have put in the cleaner. It all comes out looking great!!!

No, but with vintage glue you have to ask yourself the following questions:1- Will the detergent soften the glue ? 2- Will the ultrasonic vibrations crystallize the glue and then cause it to shatter ? Glued jewelry is pretty fragile. You may be best served with a bucket of soapy water and a soft scrub brush like an old toothbrush. Good luck !
