Clean it-up "around the house"

Glass Tables

 

Glass top tables look good, but what a pain to clean. They show just about everything. Well I have some tips to make the job easier.

 

 

1. To clean the table quickly, pour rubbing alcohol on a soft cloth and wipe the table. The alcohol will evaporate and leave behind a great shine!

2. If you have a stubborn grease spot, clean it away with white vinegar. The vinegar will break up the grease and make it easy to wipe away. (No white vinegar? Try a little cola it will do the same thing!)

3. Here is a great way for you to clean your table and keep the dust off longer. Mix together two teaspoons liquid fabric softener and a pint of warm water. Spray it on and wipe it down with a soft, lint free cloth.

4. When you're done, wipe it again with another cloth or use a squeegee to remove any excess water. The fabric softener will help repel dust and keep your table clean longer.
