Cloudy Glasses No More: The Simple Kitchen Trick to Restore Crystal-Clear Shine

🥂 Why Glasses Get Cloudy

Before we fix the problem, let’s understand it. Cloudy glasses usually happen for one of two reasons:

1. Hard water deposits:
   Minerals like calcium and magnesium build up on the glass over time, leaving behind a whitish film.
2. Etching:
   If glasses are repeatedly washed in very hot water or with harsh detergents, the surface can actually get worn down — causing a permanent cloudy look.

If the haze is from mineral deposits, this trick will bring your glassware back to life. If it’s from etching, unfortunately, that’s permanent damage — but regular care can prevent it from getting worse.

🧽 The Simple Trick: Vinegar and Baking Soda

You’ll need:

• White vinegar
• Baking soda
• Warm water
• A soft sponge or microfiber cloth

🥄 Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Soak in vinegar:
   Fill your sink or a large bowl with warm water and add one cup of white vinegar. Submerge your glasses and let them soak for 10–15 minutes. The vinegar dissolves mineral buildup and soap residue naturally.
2. Sprinkle with baking soda:
   After soaking, sprinkle a bit of baking soda onto a damp sponge or cloth. Gently scrub the glasses, focusing on the cloudiest areas.
3. Rinse and dry:
   Rinse thoroughly with warm water and dry immediately with a lint-free cloth or paper towel.
4. Admire the shine! ✨
   Your glasses should now be crystal clear and gleaming again — no streaks, no haze.
