Whats the best way to clean gold jewelry?
Is there something I can soak it in? or is it best to send it off to a jewelers for a going over?
Cheers!

Buy a brand-name liquid jewelry cleaners found in many stores. Cleaning instructions vary depending on the kit, so read the label and follow its instructions.

You know, I'd heard about something silly like that before.. but I thought it was vinegar for some reason!
Does it really work though? or am I just gonna fuck up a potential glass of scotch & coke?

Put some scotch in a glass, and the jewellery in there with it. give it a stir occasionally and it'll clean it up nicely.
