How to Clean a Glass Coffee Table
Cleaning a glass coffee table can be a tedious task. Over time, it can become full of dust and fingerprints. However, with the right materials, you can make your table sparkle in no time.
Cleaning Supplies You’ll Need
- A dry microfiber cloth: This is the most important and most useful tool you’ll need in your cleaning arsenal. The fabric will help prevent streaks and can trap dirt and dust.
- White vinegar: Vinegar is a natural cleaner and can help remove stubborn spots and stains.
- Baking soda: This is an excellent and totally natural solution to cleaning glass surfaces. Simply mix it with a little bit of water and it will create an effective cleaning paste.
- Rubbing alcohol: Rubbing alcohol is a great way to remove greasy spots and fingerprints. Just be sure to avoid using it near open flames.
- Windex or other glass cleaner: Windex or any glass cleaner is a great choice for removing streaks. Just be sure to avoid products with ammonia, as this can damage the surface of the glass.
Cleaning the Table
- Start by using the dry microfiber cloth and gently dust off the table. Make sure to dust in the corners and along the sides as well.
- For stubborn spots and stains, try using a damp cloth and either white vinegar or baking soda. Gently rub the area with the cloth until the stain is removed. Be careful not to rub too hard to avoid scratching the glass surface.
- For greasy spots and fingerprints, use a cloth dampened with rubbing alcohol. Again, be sure not to rub too hard to avoid scratching the glass surface.
- Once you’re done cleaning the table, use a cloth dampened with Windex or other glass cleaner to help remove streaks. Spray the table first and then use the cloth to wipe it down.
- Finally, use the dry microfiber cloth to dry and buff your table. This will help to remove any remaining streaks and add a nice shine.
By following these easy steps, you can have your glass coffee table shining like new in no time.
