If you have Crystal Glass Trophies adorning your shelf, keeping them clean and sparkling throughout can get a tad bit difficult. And, in case you are wondering how to preserve the crystalline beauty of your hard-earned accolades, we will tell you how to take some good care. Let’s see how:
- Easy Dusting: When displayed in an open space, awards are most likely to get covered with loose dust. For that, no fancy cleaning is necessary and wiping it gently with a soft dry cloth can be your go-to solution. The more you prevent it from dirt sedimentation, the less cleaning it would require in the long run. Hence, a weekly rub shall ensure that your prized possession is as good as the day you were presented with it.
- Diluted Soap Solution: For times when you find your awards with a dust build-up, you should know it would require some additional tidying up. You would only need soap, water and a good quality microfiber cloth for that. Mix some soap with water until you get a frothy liquid, which will do the magic trick. Now gently wet the cloth piece and dab it over your trophy. Wipe away the dirt by making it anew.
- White Vinegar: Crystal objects are delicate and, if left unattended for too long, can be found covered in soot and stains. To make them blemish-free, once again, a homely remedy could be White Vinegar. An inexpensive yet effective cleanser can be prepared by combining White Vinegar and Water in a 1:2 ratio. This potent liquid could be transferred into a spray bottle before using it. You would be surprised to find your souvenir squeaky clean in no time.
A few DON’Ts for your Crystal Glass Trophies:
- While cleaning your trophy, do not use liquid substances on the base material, such as wood.
- Always spray the liquid on the cloth and never on the award directly.
- Make sure to only use high-quality soap to prepare your cleaning liquid.
- Use white vinegar only when it's absolutely needed to avoid unnecessary damage.
Just as yourself, never let your keepsakes lose their shine!
