Cleaning Bathroom Fixtures - Tip 2: Mirrors




Tip 2 - Mirrors

To prevent a bathroom mirror becoming clouded with steam, rub it all over with a cloth slightly dampened with glycerin. Use Duplex Jetvac steamer to thermally extract and dry the excess steam residues in the  mirror with the Jetvac's unique wet and dry vacuum feature. After wet and dry vacuuming, use microfibre cloth or mitt to wipe off any leftover in the mirror.

There will be less steam in a bathroom if a little cold water is first run into the bath.

The spray-on  window cleaners, when applied to mirrors, should not sprayed too liberally, or be left on the surface for too long. It is actually safer to spray a soft cloth with the steam cleaner at low pressure and apply that to the mirror.

Some old mirrors and those in damp positions, as in a steamy bathroom, often become blotched. No amount of surface rubbing will restore them because the backing has been effected. It is necessary to have the entire mirror re-silvered. Instead, the superheated dry steam should be used to deep clean, extract and dry the mirror simultaneously without applying hard pressure in touching the surface.  

For ideal window cleaner with wet and dry vacuum capabilities, visit Duplex for suitable cleaner to clean mirrors.
