I would be very careful with it on plated jewelry and on jewelry with gems glued on.
I agree to use caution as the LAs Totally Awesome that is yellow concentrated has a label with red writing, it warns to dillute it and has ratios. I have seen it remove finishes and paint, use caution.
I would not recommend it. Simple mild soapy warm water does a great job cleaning jewelry as is.
What jewelry metal are you trying to clean?
Two questions--
1. Awesome makes a ton of products, so which one were you considering?
2. What kind of jewelry are you trying to clean?
This is me, but the only Awesome product I may consider to clean say a grimy gold wedding band or gold ring with small well set diamonds (meaning not glued) would be their vinegar cleaning product (but since regular vinegar is usually much cheaper, I go that route). With either, I dilute it by a few drops of it into a cup of warm water and the use a tooth brush to clean the rings if they get greasy or I forget to take them off when working in the yard. I never submerge rings in water (any of them) ever. AND (because I am klutzy) I never put them in or near the sink because I am terrified of them going down the drain.
You have to be very careful with silver (there are ton of home recipes to clean real silver and most recommend foil, a few drops of Dawn liquid, salt and baking soda and boiling water. They do work.
You have to be very careful with stones like opals which should NEVER be submerged in water or have any chemicals touch them.
Costume jewelry with glued stones even water that is too hot can cause issues with the glue. Those I usually use a few drops of Dawn in a cup of warm water and gently clean with a toothbrush.
