Platinum is rarer than gold, but has similar properties when it comes to cleaning. For home use, a mild detergent and water solution can be used to clean the metal, but be careful to rinse the item and dry it well after cleaning. To keep the polished look of platinum items, it is recommended that they be taken to a professional to be polished. While platinum is a quite durable metal, it can be scratched. Always be sure to use soft brushes and cloths when cleaning your platinum jewelery at home.
