    Kenneth No offense, I would prefer the "safer way" than using a
    substance that is skin & eye irritating, "speed can hurt"! I prefer
    to use warmed  "Methyl Hydrate" in a sonic-cleaner any day of the
    year. This method is faster and safe to use on any fragile gem and above.... 
    its "skin friendly"....Gerry!
