b. you can polish using opaque toothpaste and soft toothbrush or cloth or
c. clean with gentle dishwashing detergent (preferably Dawn) in warm water and soft toothbrush or cloth or
d. clean with ketchup paste and soft toothbrush or cloth or
e. polish using equal parts lemon juice and vinegar combined with baking soda to form a paste or
f. polish with combined warm water and baking soda paste. Use a soft toothbrush to apply this DIY cleaner in gentle motions and movements or

After polishing, rinse the paste off with water and pat dry immediately to remove moisture from jewelry.
