How to Clean a Glass Coffee Table
It might not seem like it, but with the right cleaning supplies, glass coffee tables are very durable and easy to keep clean. Follow these simple tips to ensure your glass coffee table looks as good as new.
Step One: Dust the Surface
Using a soft cloth or a microfiber duster, lightly dust the surface of your glass coffee table. If possible, do this on a daily basis to keep any major dirt or dust from building up.
Step Two: Apply Glass Cleaner
Spray a small amount of glass cleaner onto a soft cloth and apply it to the table top. Make sure to move the cloth around in a circular motion to ensure you’re getting every surface of the table.
Step Three: Rinse the Table
Take a clean cloth and dampen it with warm water. Use the damp cloth to wipe away any cleaner residue, taking care to remove any spots or streaks.
Step Four: Dry the Table
Use a clean, dry cloth to dry the table top thoroughly.
Other Tips
- Never use abrasive cleaners – as glass is a delicate surface, it can easily be scratched or damaged by harsh or abrasive cleaners.
- Avoid ammonia-based cleaners – ammonia-based cleaners can interact with some types of metal table frames, so it’s best to avoid them.
- Don’t use paper towels – these can leave behind tiny pieces of lint or fibres, damaging the glass.
By following these tips, you can help keep your glass coffee table looking its best for years to come!
