Cleaning Hard Water Spots Off Of Crystal

By

Sandy

I have the hardest water out of all of you all . Most times a warm white vinegar and water soak will remove the spots but I have had some in which it did not. I used some fine metal polish in a final try to remove the spots from some glass and had amaizing results. You might try one of those metal polishing cloths to remove them as I do't believe the product I used is available anymore. I used," Haggerty's 100 metal polish". Last time I found some was at a jewelers.

I agree with the vinegar. I keep a jar of vinegar under my sink and when I need it I put the vinegar in a dish and roll the glasses in the vinegar and then rinse in hot water. I put the vinegar back into the jar and use the same vinegar over and over.

There will be no vinegar taste. Honest.

If you are washing these in the dishwasher, you could try a cup or so of vinegar in the last rince. I used to do this when I lived in a town with hard water and I had no water softer. It also prevented a film on dark china like the brown teapot. You could give it a try.
