Just get it steamed cleaned by a jeweler shop , unless it's 10 k or less in which case get the non abrasive soap.

I have an expensive ultrasonic cleaner that's a couple hundred dollars and also a an "Icebox" ultrasonic cleaner from Icebox and I use theirs all the time because it's smaller and more convenient.

Exactly. Keep in mind Jacob's is based off Tito's and Jacob's starting weight is only about 120 grams, solid, ie JChamber's piece. If you wanted it heavier, all Jacob did was put a plate on the back making it 160 grams

I bought this for my wife’s jewelry (Engagement ring, wedding band, Cartier bracelet) and I started using it to clean my Cuban. Put it on a 4 min timer, brush it off with a soft bristle toothbrush, and then hit it with another 2 mins. Keeps my chain looking shiny.Thoughts on this?

This is Jacob from that era that has a welded on back plate this piece I believe weighed 165grams. My piece is not for for everyone so it’s all good

I think 180 or 189. pretty sure rich4eva said an 18k white gold kufi was like 300 grams. when IF&CO made a kufi that looked like Jacob's mold they said it was about 250 grams on their blog. the heaviest pendant I currently own is like 138 grams of 10 karat gold & it feels very heavy so I do think that 120 is enough.Didn’t ninja say da jake was about 200g?

Thanks for the reply, I already have one of those machines its called the Sienna trio shine. Its a 3 in 1 (steamer, ultrasonic and uv cleaner). It works great but I meant having it professionally done when they actually remove all the scratches out so it looks brand new.
I was just curious because ive heard when they professionally do it they actually rub off a surface amount of gold. I wanted to know if that was really true and how much you actually loose in the process.

Going to be hard to gauge. You’ll definitely lose some gold since the surface area is being polished off but I doubt it’s anything material.
