Whats involved in the polishing and plating process

For platinum jewellery the jeweller will buff (emery) and polish all parts of the metal ensuring all scratches are removed. And small dents will also be buffed out but any large dents, holes or damage will need to be repaired beforehand.
For 18K, 14K and 9K white gold jewellery the jeweller will remove the old Rhodium coating and then buff (emery) and polish the metal. Once polished the item is dipped in Rhodium once again to give it its beautiful white sheen. If any large dents or damage is present the ring will need to be repaired.
For 18K, 14K and 9K yellow and rose gold jewellery, the jeweller buffs (emery) and polishes the ring removing scratches etc. If any large dents or damage is present the ring will need to be repaired.

how many sizes can you go up or down in resizing?

For most solitaire rings you can resize as much as you need. Rings with diamonds will depend on the style of setting and number of stones in the band but generally up to 3-4 sizes is ok. If you are unsure please do not hesitate to contact us.
