Check out these little mistakes that we usually make while cleaning glass. If you avoid them, you will enjoy a longer life for your window and patio glass, door glass, storefront glass, shower door glass, tabletops, shelves and decorative glass, mirror glass and more.
Avoid Cleaning Glass while Dry
Do not wipe glass with a piece of cloth when the glass is dry. Dust particles on the cloth can scratch the glass and make it more susceptible to damage in the future. Use a moist soft duster or damp soft cloth for cleaning glass.
Do Not Use Soap
Avoid using soap or detergents of any kind as it can end up damaging the coating on the surface of the glass. You might have a cleaner but it does not mean that it is good for cleaning glass as well. Use specialized cleaner for glass to avoid damaging.
Be Gentle on the Glass
Glass and frame require a different cleaning approach. Your door glass or window glass can attract dust particles while you are cleaning your carpet and vacuuming. So try to wipe your glass softly while you can rub harder on the rim to make it shine.
Strict ‘No’ for Paper Towels, Dry Cloth and Tissues
Avoid using paper towels, clothes and tissues as they may be soft, but may have a crude surface that can easily attract dust or scratch your residential glass or storefront glass. Use microfibers to elongate their life.
