IMPROVEMENT IN CHEMICAL COMPOUNDS FOR CLEANING JEWELRY, DIAMONDS, &c.
I Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 145.065, dated December 2, 1873; application filed October 30, 187.3.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, AUGUSTUS H. LONG- LEY and EDWARD R. Summer, of Springfield, in the county of Hampden, in the State of Massachusetts, have invented a new Chemical Compound, designated The Acme, Queen of the \Vardrobe, for the more perfect and eflicient cleansing of jewelry, diamonds, emeralds, and all precious stones; gold, silver, nickel, brass, and other polished .jcompositions, including plate-glass, &c.; kid
gloves, hair goods, ladies and gentlemens clothing, embracing dresses, shawls, neckties, sashes, ribbons, coats, pants, vests, &c., made of silk, woolen, linen, and cotton fabrics of fast and durable colors, without injury to the finest material or texture; and we do hereby declare that the following is a full and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying formula and the ingredients composing it.
The following is the formula for one gallon:
Alcohol, eight ounces; benzine, (rectified,) two ounces; oil of citronella, one and a half dram; oil of Verbena, one and a half dram; oil of bergamot, one and a half dram; ammonia-water, eight ounces; salt, two ounces; saltpeter, two ounces; alum, one ounce; borax, two ounces; palm soap, four ounces; pure water, six and a half pints.
Dissolve the soap in the water, add benzine; dissolve the borax, saltpeter, salt, and alum in water, add ammonia-Water, add the oil of citronella, Verbena, berg-amot, and the Mix the whole; warm and strain.
The nature of our invention consists in the chemical combination of the several ingredicuts, as per the formula, its application, and elfects, as fully stated in the following specification:
First, for jewelry, (comprising all qualities,) diamonds, emeralds, rubies, amethysts, topaz, opals, &c., we simply immerse in the liquid, agitate gently for a few moments, rinse in clean water, dry in fine saw-dust, or wipe with soft cloth or chamois. Watches and other articles that cannot be immersed, sponge the surface softly and thoroughly, and dry by wiping. A complete and perfect cleansing in every part is the result.
Second, for gold, silver, nickel, brass, and
all other polished surfaces, including plateglass, &c., apply in same manner as on watches, etc.
Third, for kid gloves, place the glove on the hand or other convenient form; then apply the liquid, with a clean sponge, thoroughly to every part, remove, dry in the sun, after which stretch with the fingers or glove-stretcher, leaving them bright, clean, and soft as when new.
Fourth, for hair goods, moisten with the liquid and dry slowly.
Fifth, for the cleansing and dressing of ladies and gentlemens wearing apparel. For dresses, shawls, neckties, sashes, ribbons, &c., lay or place fiat on a table, with clean cloth underneath; sponge the whole evenly. If desired stifl' and crispy, iron when wet; if otherwise, dry in the sun, if convenient, then iron. If soiled by tobacco-juice, fruit stains, and the like, place over a clean cloth, sponge persistently. A portion will be taken up by the sponge, the rest will pass into the cloth underneath, which must be changed at intervals, as the case requires. For grease, paint, pitch, printers ink, 850., apply to the parts aflected by a brisk movement of the sponge, and the spots will disappear. For paint, &c., if very dry, more time is required. Brush out all dirt lines, after the spot or stain is removed, with sponge moistened with clean water.
Always use a clean sponge.
What we claim as our invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
A compound composed of the ingredients in about the proportions herein set forth.
