How to Care for Titanium Rings
Cleaning for your titanium ring is easy with a microfiber towel.
Titanium is renowned for its strength and durability, making it an ideal choice for wedding bands and other jewelry that's meant to last a lifetime. However, like all precious items, a titanium ring requires some care to maintain its luster and ensure it remains in pristine condition. Here are some tips on how to care for your titanium rings, covering everything from routine cleaning to proper storage and handling.
Daily Care and Handling
1. Keep It Clean: Regularly clean your titanium ring to remove oils, dirt, and residue that accumulate through daily wear. A microfiber towel works great for most cleaning purposes with no further steps needed. If heavy cleaning is needed, simply wash the ring with warm water, a few drops of mild dish soap, and buff with the microfiber towel. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could scratch the metal.
2. Avoid Harsh Chemicals: While titanium is highly resistant to corrosion and tarnishing, harsh chemicals can dull its finish. It’s advisable to remove your ring during activities like swimming in chlorinated water, cleaning with bleach, or applying lotions and perfumes.
3. Gentle Handling: Despite its toughness, titanium can be scratched by materials that are as hard or harder than the metal itself. Be mindful of your ring when you’re engaging in activities that might expose it to hard surfaces.
Periodic Maintenance
1. Professional Polishing: Although titanium is less prone to scratching than softer metals, it can benefit from occasional polishing. I use and recommend Mothers brand polish, as shown in pic below. We offer free ring care included with your purchase that includes Mothers polish can be purchased at most local automotive stores or walmart usually stocks it. Just a small dab on a microfiber and gently rub out the small blemishes with ease. At Peacefield Titanium, every ring comes with a refinish warranty if you are not comfortable doing it yourself.
2. Check for Wear and Tear: Regularly inspect your ring for any signs of wear, such as small scratches or changes in shape. While significant damage is unlikely, catching any issues early can help maintain the ring's integrity and appearance.
Storage Solutions
1. Separate Storage: Store your titanium ring in a fabric-lined jewelry box or a dedicated ring holder, the box we include with your ring purchase from Peacefield Titanium is perfect for this. To prevent scratches, keep it separate from other jewelry pieces, especially those made of harder materials like diamonds.
By following these care tips, your titanium ring will continue to look as new as the day you got it. Remember, while titanium is exceptionally durable, taking these small steps can ensure its longevity and lasting beauty. This not only helps in maintaining the material's integrity but also ensures that it remains a cherished piece of your jewelry collection for years to come.
