I have developed what is known as wedding ring rashI have looked online and found that a solution of peroxide and white vinegar thoroughly cleans bacteria from a ring, which is usually the cause of the rashBut most of the information I have found is about gold/platinum and diamondsWould this solution harm sterling silver and cubic zirconia? I have a temporary set to wear while pregnant because of fingers swelling, it is sterling silver and cubic zirconiaMy real rings are on standby until I can fit into them againWhile this silver/Cz set isn't my real set, I am fond of it and don't want to ruin itThanks for any information.
None are all tinThey are usually steel but may be paint cans may be aluminumFood cans often have an internal coating of tin, but nowadays food cans are lined with plastic insteadMetal in a microwave is a problemIt can burn out the magnetron tube and you are in for an expensive repairHowever, small amounts of metal can be used; the metal will shield whatever is inside itIt does not have to be magnetic-aluminum foil will provide shielding (any conductor will)Sparks will occur at any edges or points of the metalIn general it is not recommendedThe metal inside the microwave will absorb energy from the microwave generator and can overload it.
Milo and cambell's is made of tin but depending on the type of paint and countrie of origin then it may be made of steel, aluminium or other metalsThe micro waves force the molicules of the tin to vibrate in food this dosen't mater as the water and fat molicules can move freeley but in metal this causes the metal to super heat and generate electrical curent this is what causes it to glowIf the tin touches the matal sides of the microwave then it may cause electrical burn outs and decrease the operational life of the micro waveother wise if it dosen't contact the metal the microwave will be fine
Metal in the microwave big no noIt will break for sureYou honestly shouldn't even put tinfoil in it, but actuals cans will be WAY worse.
Soak the ring in really hot water for 5 min to loosen any dirtPlace a some aluminium foil in a cup/bowl, put the ring on the foil add more boiling water then add a teaspoon of bicarb sodaIt will fizz and if the ring is soiled enough you will see it on the bubblesRinse in hot water and dryYou can repeat if you are nott happy with the resultI have been cleaning silver jewellery and cutlery this way for years For gol or platinum jewellery do the same thing but leave out the foil.
