Updated from your answers.

How to do it

Time
3 min
Water
Lukewarm, 30–40 °C

Run the piece on its own. One drop of mild dish soap, then rinse and dry gently.

With these answers we do not recommend the ultrasonic cleaner, so there is no how-to.

Pick your cleaner to see if it fits, which setting to use and what its manual says.

Why

Pure gold does not corrode, so water and cavitation do not harm the metal. It is very soft, though, and if it knocks against other items or the bottom of the tank it will get marks.

Watch out for

  • Run it on its own
  • Do not rub hard when drying
