Choosing Wiping Tools
Use a soft cloth (such as chamois) or soft paper treated with silicone oil for wiping; avoid using facial tissues or coarse fabrics to prevent scratching the pearl's surface.
Wipe the pearl surface promptly after wearing (especially in hot weather) to remove sweat, oils, and other residues, thereby preventing corrosion.
Basic Cleaning Steps
Wiping with a Soft Cloth: Gently wipe the pearl's surface and the area around the drill hole with a clean, soft cloth to remove dust and dirt.
Cleaning with Soapy Water:
Prepare a basin of water; wet your hands and the soap to create a rich lather.
Dampen a soft cloth with the soap lather and gently wipe the pearl's surface; avoid soaking the pearl directly in water.
Rinse thoroughly with clean water to ensure no soap residue remains.
