What You Need To Know About Cleaning A Cloudy Mirror
There are a number of questions about why mirrors do what they do once the start to age and today I want to focus on why they become cloudy and how you can go about cleaning them.
If you own a full length mirror and is tarnished and cloudy well take comfort in the fact that you are not alone. I once owned a problem mirror myself; the family next door has been there too. Like me at some point, you might have tried everything you can to clean it to no avail.
So what do you do if you are not planning keep it? How do you go about cleaning it? As a mirror expert I know a few tricks on how you can do this effectively. These suggestions can apply to all kinds including large, oversized, compact, framed, unframed or even full body wall mirrors.
You can simply clean them with some water. Just warm the water or even to boil and then try to clean it. Make sure the water is plain or else it might not work. If you own plexy glass then you can be sure this will work pretty well.
Vinegar and a newspaper can work well too. This could work especially if some one once added some smeared the mirror with some oil.
You can try to use some spray cleaners like windex. One thing I must mention here is that spray cleaners are good 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. Maybe the problem is with the silver on the back of the mirror i.e it could be peeling off. You can simply fix this by having it re-silvered especially if you really can’t get rid of it.
