Stain On Glass

[Koji]

I try to search for any thread regarding removing of stain on glass but couldnt find any thus starting this.

Can anyone teach me how to remove this stain on the glass? It feel like salt but I tried scrubbing it real hard but still I couldnt remove them.

All help are greatly appreciated.

I tried white vinegar but it doesnt work. Using blade?... Would it leave any scratch mark?

Using a razor blade is your best bet for calcium deposits like that. Glass is VERY difficult to scratch and impossible to stain so even though it's hard to remove...it WILL come off because it's sitting on the serface. Keep the blade level with the glass an at a 45 degree angle to the glass....Follow up with white vinigar and water in a 50/50 mix.

Fix the leak first...

Be sure to use a clean sharp razor blade. Takes the residue off easier and less chance of scratching the glass.

That is your best bet.

Soak a rag or paper towel in vinegar and leave it on the mineral deposit for several minutes. Scrub and repeat until it softens up and comes off. "Lime-away" or another brand of hard water remover is a bit more potent (and toxic...), but vinegar will work with patient use.

I'll try the vinegar solution and the blade scrapping method. Will update again.

Thanks guys!!
