Alternatives To Clean A Cloudy Mirror
I have met a number of people who are having trouble with cleaning their mirrors that have become cloudy and today I want to try and help you in that regard.
Let us say you own a full length mirror and is tarnished and cloudy well take comfort in the fact that you are not alone. I have been there; I can bet that you neighbour has owned one too. I tried everything I could to clean it until I got rid of it only to discover the best cleaning methods months after I had gotten rid of it.
So what do you do if you are not planning keep it? Is there really a way to clean it? As a decorative bathroom mirrors expert I can share a few tips on how to go about doing this. These suggestions can apply to all kinds including large, oversized, compact, framed, unframed or even full length tri-fold mirrors.
One of the easiest ways is to clean it with water. Warm or hot water would do the job just fine. Make sure the water is plain or else it might not work. This can work pretty well on a plexy glass.
Another option is to simply use vinegar and newspaper. This could work especially if some one once added some smeared the mirror with some oil.
Another alternative is to use spray cleaners like Windex or something similar. Spray cleaners work well generally well for some oversized bathroom mirrors and not for others. This is why you should not worry too much if this option does not work for you – just move on to the next option.
If all these tips fail then it probably means there are other reasons why it does not respond. For example, if the problem lies with the silver on the back of the mirror then trying to clean it will not work . You can simply fix this by having it re-silvered especially if you really can’t get rid of it.
