How to Test Gold at Home With Toothpaste (Easy DIY Method)
why not just let it soak in the solution?
You mean, soak it but not clean it with a brush? You could do that too, but would not recommend soaking it for too long. And yes, you can skip the scrubbing part if your gold item is not that dirty.
I can you vinehgar and baking soda for cleaning my gold...it can be damaged my gold or not please respond
Thanks for sharing the details 👍👍🙏🇮🇳
Reduan😢
Just did a fue chains I had put away looking so shining now thank you 😊🙏
Happy to hear that! You’re welcome 😊
great video
Thanks!
Can we use close up also?
But i used this method but my gold ring did not give any different marks like black colour but its gold and hallmark ring 91.6
Thank you so much it's working❤
Is it really this easy?!
Yes, it's that easy! You can do this simple DIY method at home using a mild dishwashing liquid, baking soda, and salt. Check out our other videos to discover more gold cleaning methods.
Anyone else’s vinegar overflow?
Yeah mine did😂
Maligo ka lang araw araw suot gold mo kikintab yan skn d q na hinuhubad bracelet ko d na need linisan pag ligo, laba, hugas plato suot ko kusa na nlilinis😂
No toothpaste scratches your jewelry
We recommend using white toothpaste as it's less abrasive. Also, be sure to clean your gold very gently! When done right, this toothpaste cleaning method will make your gold shine like new without leaving any scratches.
Thank you
Thanks for watching! Check out our other gold testing videos to learn how to authenticate your gold jewelry easily at home.
Ultra sound cleaning need. Hey Jawelry Intel, what about using kamerton - tuning fork to test gold?
It would be cool if the jewelry being used was actually tarnished
Can I ask? I have a golden coin. I tried it the black stuff was there. Then I tried it on my quarter (20 European cents) and the black stuff also appears to be there. What does that mean?
How about you get a glass of water then put the gold coin in there,if it floats its fake but if it sink its real
Thanks
Most fake gold is formed using non-magnetic metals! So please don't use this as a stand alone test. Usually 2 more methods more reliable than the magnet are used in addition to a simple magnet test. XRF or conductivity tests are great, but expensive is equipment needed (or a jeweler can do it for you) . Acid scratch test is one of the cheapest methods, but it marks the material.
She mentioned that
Yes, some fake gold items contain copper and other non-magnetic metals, which is why we recommend using multiple testing methods to confirm that your gold is real.
Oops, I mixed up yhe steps and instead of mixing it with salt, I used Cocaine. I might not have clean jewelry but I have money now to buy real gold jewelry! Thanks for the tips on learning how to cook crack!
I try my ring and then te result its like that but I don't see where is carats pls help me
thank you very much... actually I rub a copper item on touchstone .. and put white vinegar on the streak.. white vinegar dissolve it
The necklace is real gold?
Yes, the necklace is made from 18-karat gold.
what about gold plated?
Testing gold and gold-plated jewelry may lead to the same results. It's best to use multiple testing methods to verify the authenticity of your gold.
Huwag kang mag english salamat😡😡😡
How to store this gold plated silver jewellery...can u pls tell
We recommend storing gold-plated and silver jewelry separately in soft pouches or a zip-lock bag. You can also store them in a jewelry box with multiple compartments with a fabric-lined interior, ensuring the pieces don't scratch each other.
Can I use this same recipe for silver plate?
Yes, definitely! This easy DIY cleaning hack works well to restore the shine of gold, gold-plated, and silver items.
legit?
The toothpaste test is a quick and easy method you can do at home. We recommend using multiple methods to verify your gold's authenticity.
It works... Im so happy,,, i follow your instruction but i didn't use foil, my xuping gold and top grade gold turns like brandnew again... Thanks for this video🥰🥰🥰
We're glad to know it worked for you! Check out our other cleaning videos to bring back the shine of your jewelry using simple household items.
Does the water turn black if its dirty ????
Yes, there's a possibility that the water will look darker because of the dirt, oil, and grime from dirty or tarnished jewelry. Follow the steps in this video to clean your gold jewelry using vinegar and baking soda.
how often to clean?
We recommend wiping your gold-plated jewelry with a soft, clean cloth every 2-3 weeks and deep-cleaning it using our DIY method every 2-3 months or as necessary.
When I did it it turned brown like the gold was removed😢
There might have been a reaction with the gold plating. It happens if the plating is very thin or already heavily worn. Sometimes, homemade cleaning solutions won't work if the plating is not high quality.
I am in to gold jewelry so I happen to find this video. 😅
Nice! Do you have any other methods you use?
@@JewelryIntel Nah. I think the magnet test is enough.
a lot of fakes doesnt attract to magnets 😅
How would you do this for a watch?
Be extra careful around the watch face and any moving parts. If its not water-resistant, don't put it in the cleaning solution. Instead, just lightly dampen a soft cloth with the solution and gently wipe the gold plated areas. I use a cotton swab for hard to reach spots.
🧐
Thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching!
Well this method is looks easy and I will follow this on one of my ear ring which I found on street😂
Nice! How did it go?
😂😂😂
Fake info. All metal leaves black marks woth toothpaste. This is stupid.
Magnet gold test is not advisable because so manny none magnetic meral.
Hey @experto-expert, thanks for tuning in and for your valuable input! You're absolutely right. The magnet test is just one of many ways to check. It's a simple and quick method, but it's not foolproof since not all non-gold metals are magnetic. That's why I recommend using multiple testing methods to get a more accurate idea of whether gold is real or not. Your point is super important 👍💎
@@JewelryIntel ❤️
Wright because dirty
Hey @experto-expert, thanks for your comment! You bring up a good point. Dirt can affect the outcome, giving misleading results. It's a simple, home-based method, but it's not the most reliable. That's why it's good to combine this with other methods. Always good to have keen observers like you in the community! 👍✨
Thanks again
Always welcome
I dont think you're supposed to use warm water on jewelry
Seriously, how come?
Hey @matthewhensley5165, thanks for your comment! I get where you're coming from. Warm water can be a bit tricky with certain types of jewelry. However, for white gold, warm water is usually safe and effective, especially when it's not too hot and mixed with a mild dishwashing liquid. It helps to loosen up dirt and grime. But yeah, it's always good to be cautious, especially with delicate pieces or those with sensitive gemstones. 😊🌟
Okay well I was told specifically for my white gold cuban to only wash it in cold water with dish soap
Thank you for the useful tip
Thanks for watching!
Hello maam new friend give me back a hug tnx
Thanks for watching!
I have a necklace that only sticks to the magnet on the clasp everywhere else it don’t stick so does that mean it’s real or fake
Can you visit my video about magnet test tnx
Hi. If the necklace only sticks to the magnet at the clasp, My guess is the clasp is made of a magnetic metal, and the rest of the necklace is not. Many jewelry clasps are made from metals that are different from the main body of the jewelry piece, sometimes for durability and cost. Gold itself is not magnetic, so if the main part of your necklace doesn't stick to a magnet, it could mean that it's real gold. Still, I recommend trying other testing methods to be more certain. Thanks for watching and commenting! Please subscribe for more similar videos.
@chrishixon3420, l too have a necklace, also a braclet to the clasp only. Is the rest of the braclet gold or brass? Acid test will probably prove it.
The clasp in necklaces has a tiny spring which is made out of steel. Magnet test is old and outdated anyway. And with a strong enough magnet some gold alloys will have a slight pull to a magnet
Many clasps have been replaced, especially in vintage jewelry.
What's the slice cheese for though
Hi Daniel. Not sure what you mean.
@@JewelryIntelthe cloth you used to dry it with looks like a slice of cheese
Thanks maam subscribe done new friend
Thank you for the subscription and support, @experto-expert! Looking forward to sharing more useful information with you.
Your method works wonderfully, I just tried it today but I did add a hint of vinegar too, thank you so much!! 💓💓💓💓
I'm so glad the method worked well for you! Adding a bit of vinegar could provide some extra cleaning power due to its acidic nature. Thank you for sharing your experience and for the lovely feedback! 💓
Thank you !!! ❤
You're welcome 😊
Why the tin foil?
Great question! The tin foil acts as a catalyst. When combined with baking soda and hot water, it creates a reaction that removes tarnish from gold-plated jewelry. It's a nifty science trick that makes this cleaning method effective. Thank you for asking, and I hope this clears things up!
