What Is 18K Waterproof Gold Plating?

The Technology Behind Long-Lasting Shine

When choosing jewelry, customers often ask the same question:
“Will the gold fade?”

At Lutche, the answer is simple:
No — not with our 18K Waterproof Gold Plating.

But what makes this technology different from traditional gold plating?
Let’s break it down in a clear and elegant way.

 


 

What Exactly Is Waterproof Gold Plating?

Traditional gold plating (the kind used in most semi-joias) is a thin layer of gold applied quickly — and it fades fast.

Our 18K Waterproof Gold Plating uses a multi-layer bonding process that:

✨ Seals The Gold Into The Steel
✨ Protects Against Water
✨ Prevents Tarnishing
✨ Increases Durability
✨ Keeps The Shine Bright For Years

It's jewelry made to live life with you — not stay in the box.

 


 

Why 18K Gold?

18K gold has the perfect balance of:

  • Rich Color

  • Long-Lasting Shine

  • Resistance

  • Luxury Appearance

It gives the piece a warm, elegant glow that looks beautifully premium — without being too yellow or artificial.

 


 

How Waterproof Gold Plating Works (Simplified)

  1. The base is 316L Stainless Steel (the most durable metal for jewelry).

  2. Several micro-layers are added to prepare the surface.

  3. A thick, high-quality layer of 18K gold is applied.

  4. A protective sealing coat is added to lock the shine.

This process makes the piece:

✔ Water-Resistant
✔ Sweat-Resistant
✔ Tarnish-Free
✔ Suitable For Everyday Use
✔ Perfect For Sensitive Skin

 


 

Why It Doesn’t Fade

Our plating technology is designed to resist:

  • Shower Water

  • Perfumes

  • Lotions

  • Sweat

  • Daily Friction

  • Humidity

  • Ocean Water

Your jewelry keeps its shine — even with frequent use.

That’s why we can confidently say:
You can wear it every day. Anywhere.
