Cleaning glass on light fixtures
 
Need to change out my bulbs on my belize sun light fixture, and have salt water burnt on the glass over the mh's. I was wondering what people do to get rid of the salt stain on their glass. i have tried using vinegar and water and wiping it off, but doesnt really get all of it off. i plan on removing the glass and soaking it in hot water, and wiping it clean with a cloth,or should i use a sos pad or razor blade to get it off? Any thoughts would be helpful:biggrin:

cleaning glass
 
I would try to use a white scotch brite pad. Also you could try to use fine steel wool. Make sure the glass is wet with window cleaner.

Coralife makes a salt creep eliminator.... supposed to help prevent salt build up. I find it works well for cleaning the glass or plexi too. I spray it on, let it sit and wipe. Sometimes takes a few wipe downs to dissolve all the salt.

What about new blades and some acetone?
