We're going to take all the scratches and make it look beautiful. Take off take off the yellowness. What else? >> Yes, we're going to give it a high polish. Uh first what we're going to start off is take off the scratches and then we're going to go ahead and give it that nice shine. >> All right. Can I touch it or is it >> Yeah, yeah. Go ahead. Then I'm going to start the motor and then >> Okay, I'm not afraid. >> And then we're going to rub the bracelet to take off all the deep scratches that are in the bracelet. As you can see it starts giving it that nice shine. >> Yeah. >> And then from here we're going to give it that nice mirror shine. And this what this does is basically it cuts, it makes it look nice and shiny. So because this have diamonds we don't like to run it through the polisher. So what we'll do here is hand polish it with our Dremel. Gives it a softer polish but also brings out that shine. >> Looks like you're in a dentist now. >> Yeah. This should take around 3 minutes to get in between each diamond. And then from here we'll move on to the next step. So the next step we're going to go ahead and put it in the ultrasonic bath specialized for diamond and gold. And as you can see pretty dirty. When we drop it in you're going to see all that dirt come off. >> Oh, wow. That's how dirty it is? >> Yeah. Lotion. And move it to the next step. >> Oh, what's this? >> This is what we call the steamer. Blows very, very hot steam. >> Wow, I see that it looks almost Oh, it's almost done. >> So, after it's done, what we're going to do is go ahead and to the microscope, check each stone, make sure everything is nice and tight, so that they won't lose any stones in the future. >> How does it look? Wow, looks so shiny. >> Almost brand new. We're almost there. >> Each stone, making sure each one is tight. And if anything needs tightening, we'll go ahead and tighten it for them. So, after we check every stone, make sure everything nice and tight, we'll go ahead and move on to the last step. And what we call this is electroplating. >> Electro what? >> Electroplating. >> What is this? Is it a water? >> It's a basically a degreaser. Takes all the oils, fingerprints, >> Oh, it's bubbling. >> dirt, and make sure it gets it ready for that final, final step. So, what we'll do is go ahead and acid dip it. Gets the material ready for uh basically rhodium to stick nicely to it. And then once we acid dip it, we'll go ahead and do that final step. >> What's this? >> This is what we call rhodium. And this is what makes that yellow look nice and white. >> What's that thing in the bottom that keeps on turning? Looks like a pill. >> Yeah, what's that? >> Mixes the rhodium around, make sure it sticks all around it. >> What's these bubbles on top? >> So, all these bubbles is basically from the reaction that's causing rhodium to stick to the piece. And then from here we're going to go ahead and give it that final wash. Can you see it? >> Nice and shiny. >> Basically brand new. >> Wow. Sparkling.
