sterlising Jewellery

high I have just order jewellery off the net and was wondering about sterlising it I figured that a dip in vodka would do the trick but just want to be sure

Just get some anti-septic stuff and lash it in boiling water

the thing is its plastic wondering about melting

there are very few types of plastic that will melt at 100'. Check the website that you bought it off of.

i'd still say steam it..

baby's bottles are steamed for 9 minutes and are made of plastic and rubber.

Blub2k4

Water boils at 100 degrees Centigrade, steam can be higher.

Raphael

Anything that thin might get warped..

Edit: If steamed that is

i bought something like this, and put it into a baby bottle steamer.. it came out fine.no shape change. so it probably wont do any damage
