Cleaning your glass shelves                               

Spotless glass surfaces make the home look clean and beautiful. Glass and mirror surfaces require regular cleaning, which might already be part of your chores list. The cleaning products used and your cleaning technique are the key to a shimmering window or mirror.

• select a quality cleaner

If you are using a commercial cleaner, avoid those with a lot of soap; choose ammonia-based glass cleaners. Ammonia does not leave spots because it evaporates faster than soap. Commercial cleaners with isopropyl alcohol do not have the harsh smell of ammonia and are an excellent alternative if ammonia-based glass cleaners are unavailable. In addition, they are environmentally friendly and evaporate fast without leaving streaks.

• make a home glass cleaning solution

Most people use soap and water to clean glass, which leaves the surfaces with streaks. However, you can make environmentally-friendly home glass cleaners in the following ways.

• Mix equal amounts of white vinegar and water in a cleaning bottle.
• Mix equal amounts of water and isopropyl alcohol and add one tablespoon of white vinegar to get a cleaner that dries quickly without leaving streaks.
• You can also replace the white vinegar with lemon juice for a home glass cleaner that will leave your home smelling fresh.
• use a little cleaning solution

While it may be tempting to use loads of cleaning solutions to get the job done quickly, too much of the cleaner will drip and increase the chances of getting streaks. Commercial cleaners come in spray bottles but pour them into a spray bottle for more comfortable use if you made a home glass cleaning solution.

• use a microfiber cloth

The material you use to clean the glass or mirror is vital in ensuring that your surface remains streak-free. Your best choice is a clean microfiber cloth. Start cleaning from one corner and using zigzag movements, work towards the opposite corner, then downwards and back the other way.

• polish the glass or mirror surface

After you have finished cleaning the glass, take a step back and inspect it for any spots or streaks. If you notice a few marks, take a clean microfiber cloth and rub it around each area in a circle.
