Many people still use crystal glassware for serving the festive table, although it is believed that crystal has gone out of fashion. However, such dishes can still be a decoration on any table. She is beautiful, comfortable and durable. In order for the crystal to serve for many years and remain in its original form, you need to know some secrets of washing it. How and with what to wash crystal?
Crystal utensils must be handled carefully. First of all, you must remember that you can wash the crystal at a temperature of no higher than 35 degrees.
Do not use a dishwasher to wash items with a gold rim or coating. Crystal does not tolerate vibration and contact with other dishes. However, if the dishes are made of thick, durable crystal glass, but at the same time low grade, then it will withstand washing in a dishwasher. With this option, you must use only the delicate mode.
Crystal can be washed with an exceptionally soft sponge. Any abrasive will leave scratches on fragile products. When washing glasses, you should hold them by the base, and not by the leg.
If crystal ware is left to dry without wiping off excess moisture, stains will appear on it. After washing, it is important to wipe it dry with paper towels and dry wipes.
In order for the crystal to shine and sparkle, it is possible to “polish” it with an alcohol napkin or a soft thin rag soaked in vinegar.
