Opal Ring

How can i clean my opal ring? ?

I have a beautiful opal ring that is surrounded by little diamonds. Unfortunatily grime and dirt has gotten into the crevasses of the ring setting surrounding the diamonds. I know i shouldnt use jewelery cleaning chemicals with an opal but how can i get all the dirt and grime off of the diamonds and crevasses of the ring setting, without harming the opal?
Thanks for anyone who can help.

This is what the site said:

Solid opal should be cleaned gently with mild detergent in warm water and a soft toothbrush or cloth. Avoid bleach, chemicals and cleaners. Doublets & triplets may be wiped with a damp soft cloth and mild detergent, but should never be soaked or immersed.

Never allow anyone to clean your opal in an ultrasonic cleaner, as the intense vibrations may cause cracking in a solid opal, and water penetration in a doublet or triplet.

If your stone loses its shine or becomes scratched, bring it back to an opal cutter. After years of wear, small scratches and scuff marks cause an opal to lose its shiny polish and become dull looking. Professional polishing can bring new life to an opal which has become dull or scratched, and we can also check for claw damage and ensure the security of the setting.
