How do I get that water mark/mineral residue off the sides of a vase? I’d hate to list it with all that on it and it just doesn’t come off. It’s glass, so could I use a Brillo pad on it? Thought I’d ask before I went and damaged the thing.

Gala, sorry; I don’t know. If someone doesn’t come along with an answer, you may try posting this in the “Roundtable” (below, under “Heard Around the Ranch”.

Good Luck to you; hope you find your answer.

I use alcohol and lemon juice let soak over night and wipe out. Works on most of mine.

Try soaking it in water with a denture cleansing tablet dissolved in it.

Oxyclean for clothing soak overnight works too.

The lemon juice worked alittle. I did break out a Brillo pad and since it’s glass it worked fine. But I like that Oxyclean idea @Yettalass! And I do have CLR, and never thought of it! DUH! Thanks @loristhisandthat!

Great ideas and I will keep them in mind next time I come across a vase that has mineral buildup! Thanks!
