Cleaning Mineral Deposits From Vases

By Erin (Guest Post)

When I used to be a waitress we would clean the coffeepots by putting ice, lemon juice, and salt inside and then swishing them around. It would remove stubborn stains, and might work on mineral deposits too.

Have heard that a tablet used for cleaning false teeth can be put in a vase (with water) - soak overnight.

Let them soak in diluted vinegar. You'll be amazed. M

I soak mine in an orange cleaner found at the dollar tree. It comes in a clear spray bottle with red writing and lists various items that it can be used on. After soaking, I scrub lightly with a very gentle steel wool pad. It works wonders compared to every thing else I have tried! Very little scrubbing involved.

I have used CLR very successfully on the glassware in the science lab at school. It is a stronger acid than vinegar, but if vinegar doesn't do the job, than you need something stronger. I have not used Lime Away, but it must be a similar product -- that is, an acid.

I've used CLR in my crystal vases and it's removed all the discoloration and film.
