So how do you keep your prisms nice and clean so you’ll keep getting those brilliant rainbows? It’s so easy – and you don’t even have to take your strung prisms down from your window. It also costs almost nothing.
(1) Go to your store and buy a gallon of windshield washer fluid for about $1.00. This will last you about 5 years or so, or you can use the rest for your…windshield. Get some distilled water while you’re at the store and a nice spray bottle unless you have a new & unused spray bottle around the house.
(2) Rinse out your spray bottle with some distilled water, NO TAP, that water coming out of your faucet contains minerals, which will leave splotches all over your prisms.
(3) Mix your distilled water and windshield washer fluid 1:1. That means, fill your spray bottle half full with windshield washer fluid and top it off with distilled water. This will now be called…XinaCat Prism Spray.
(4) Put a towel under all your prisms to catch spillage.
(5) SPRAY AWAY!! Spray until the dust comes streaming off. Then keep spraying.
(6) Walk away. If you followed these directions, you will have no water spots and you never had to fondle and possible wreck your lovely prisms.
So why does this work? Windshield washer fluid has a great drying agent in it so your prisms will get sparkly in no time. The stuff is good enough to get bug splatter and smog off your windshield, so it will do a fine job on your dusty prisms.
If you do have splotches left on your prisms, that means you had residue in your sprayer and crud in your mixture. All you have to do, is wet a soft cloth (like your favorite soft worn out T-shirt) with your new XinaCat Prism Spray…and gently massage the affected prism. You will have shine and rainbow brilliance like never before!
Keep looking at my blog to see how to care for XinaCat jewelry. It involves…guess what…windshield washer fluid..and a soft cloth. Put away your rubbing alcohol and especially your jewelry cleaner. Don’t use it on any crystals. That’s a hint.
