Spent a couple hours looking through old posts here, but would like recent experience input.
I found a great deal on a barely used magnasonic jewelry cleaner.
Have not used it yet.
My logic was to use it for cleaning some specimen rocks, rocks that I want to maintain some character on between tumbling stages, jewelry and other small metal items I have.
The rocks have pockets of druzy. Fossil corals and wood that I want to maintain some features of.
I learned that it is best to use hot water. Maybe add some Dawn dishwashing detergent. Limit use to about 15 minutes at a time. Always use the basket. A basket full of items can be combined. The unit will not remove tarnish on metal.
The manual and internet reviews say this will work for cleaning prescription glasses and watches. I am not brave enough to do that, unless anyone else here has done it with success. Somehow, putting a watch in water does not seem right to me.
I would never put my prescription glasses or a gold, heirloom watch in water with other items. Probably would never put them in water.
Anyways, I would appreciate any comments. Thank you.
