| Sick Glass Question | Sick Glass Answer |
| I've asked you this before, and was just wandering if you had any
other suggestion. I have tried denture tablets, The Restorer and Sno-Bowl toilet cleaner.
I really treasure this set of glasses and would even have them professionally done. I asked someone locally, and he just rudely said it can't be done. Is there any other way or anyone you know of that can clean sick glass to it's original condition. PLMK and thanks! Derek |
HI! I saw your post on the sick glass, before you send to the
pro's for tumbling, (at your own risk,) can you reach the area with your fingers? If so
there is a glass cleaner that is used and made for ceramic glass cooktops, called
"Wiemans"cooktop creme and it is available in your local grocery chains in the
dishwashing(automatic)powder section. It requires some elbow grease on some things, so you
have to be able to reach the area in question. It will work on calcium, hard water stains,
deposits, (if you can get to the spot in order to rub it.) I still haven't found anything
that will take it out of my bottles with small necks. Good luck! Debbie R. |

| Sorry no picture of Un-DU! |
21 Apr 98 Gwendolyn Youngblood ghyoungblood@webtv.net To remove labels, price tags, or other unwanted sticky tags from you collectibles withou scratching them you can use a wonderful product called un-du! Un-du is a adhesive remover that is quick, safe, and easy to use and will remove labels, stickers, all kinds of tapess and much more. It will evaporate and leave the dry and free of labels and sticky residue. I want to thank Gwendolyn for taking her time to inform us of Nu-DU, a product I new nothing about.. Thank you Qwendoly! |

20 Jan 1998 MJRutkoski@aol.com I usually just need to dust off the art glass and any other glass I have. But also a mild solution of vinegar and water will always clean most glass to a sparkle.I would not suggest it on anything with hand painting tho. Marilyn Rutkoski |
| 19 Jan 1998 jvhutch@spiritone.com I have a porcelin sink, and have found that a plastic tub is a great aid in bathing the glass. The amount of space in the tub is limited, so don't put many pieces in at a time. Water can move things about when you put your hands in to start the wash process, this can clank the glass together, move slowly! Jacqueline Hutchins |

| 15 Jan 1998 Jacks@Spiritone.com I guess this one will be old hat to the veteran collectors, but it was not mentioned to me when I first got started in the collection of art glass. So, this one is for the new commers out there. DON'T Put your white milkglass hobnail in the dish washer! You will wind up with pieces, this glass can not stand the temperature changes. I don't put any of my art glass in the dish washer. Jack R Skaw |
