I have met a number of people who are having trouble with cleaning their mirrors that have become cloudy and today I want to try and help you in that regard.
If you have, say, a full length mirror and is now worn out and cloudy one thing I can say is that you are together with millions of others across the globe. I have been there; I can bet that you neighbour has owned one too. Like me at some point, you might have tried everything you can to clean it to no avail.
Now what if you do not want to replace it for one reason or the other? How do you go about cleaning it? As a antique decorative mirrors expert I know a few tricks on how you can do this effectively. These suggestions can apply to all kinds including unframed, oversized, compact, large including bathroom floor length mirror.
You can simply clean them with some water. Warm or hot water would do the job just fine. Keep the water pure i.e. without adding any additives. This can work pretty well on a plexy glass.
Also try using some vinegar and a newspaper to wipe of the cloudiness. If it was once cleaned with some oily or greasy stuff then this could work quite well.
Another alternative is to use spray cleaners like Windex or something similar. Spray cleaners work well generally well for some bathroom wall mirrors and not for others. So you should not despair if that particular spray does not work on your mirror.
If all these tips fail then it probably means there are other reasons why it does not respond. For example, if the problem lies with the silver on the back of the mirror then trying to clean it will not work . You can get it re-silvered but I would recommend you let go of it and find a new one – unless of course it has some sentimental value attached to it.
