  • Advise Needed to DIY Recovery of 2 Tones Bracelet's CPL turns Reddish ???

    Hi All Gurus,

    I need advise to recover my 2 Tones Bracelet's CPL that turns Reddish ???
    Any chemical/detergent solution to dip & wash it ?

    If no way, i think last choice will be polishing.

    Greatly appreciated for your advise.

    don't need a chemical dip.

    brush with normal white toothpaste + old toothbrush (my preferred way) or gentle buffing with cape cod.

      Agree the above is what i would do too, in fact i will brush with toothpaste followed by buffing with cape cod. look like brand new.

      Remember to tape up the brush finish on the 2 sides of the bracelet before you use cape cod, otherwise your entire bracelet will be chrome finish

          friendly when used gently. also friendly to all polished surfaces.

          but you MUST tape the non gold areas properly as it's not friendly to brushed surfaces.

              Actually I always use cape cod to polish my 116613lb it works really well for the cpl even the brush area turns out just fine. As long after going over with it just use the rolex cleaning cloth to go over few times will be as gd as new.

                  why not try toothpaste + toothbrush first?

                    using a polishing cloth should do the trick.

                          toothpaste works best on acrylic, from my experience it hasn't helped on steel or gold.

                          where do you get cape cod in SG? I order from amazon usually.

                            Some hardware shops like Home Fix carry Cape Cod. Some watch shops also sell them.
