Here’s a simple hack to make cloudy or foggy glasses sparkle again — perfect for water glasses, wine glasses, or even drinking bottles:
Method 1: Vinegar Soak
Ingredients:
- White vinegar
- Warm water
Steps:
- Fill the cloudy glass with a 50/50 mixture of white vinegar and warm water.
- Let it soak for 10–15 minutes.
- Scrub gently with a soft sponge or cloth.
- Rinse thoroughly with clean water and air dry or towel dry.
Why it works:
- Vinegar dissolves mineral deposits (like calcium and lime) that cause cloudiness.
Method 2: Baking Soda Paste (For Stubborn Cloudiness)
Ingredients:
- Baking soda
- Water
Steps:
- Mix baking soda and a few drops of water to form a paste.
- Rub the paste onto the cloudy glass with a soft cloth or sponge.
- Rinse thoroughly and dry.
Tip: This works especially well for dishwasher haze or old mineral buildup.
Extra Tips for Sparkling Glasses
- Avoid abrasive scrubbers that can scratch the glass.
- Rinse with hot water after washing to prevent streaks.
- For dishwasher-safe glasses, run an empty cycle with a cup of vinegar to remove residue and cloudiness.
