Clean Your Mirrors Quickly and Naturally
You probably use Windex or another brand of glass cleaner to clean your mirrors, but I have a better solution that is chemical-free!
Steps to Clean Your Mirrors
When you’re ready to clean your mirrors, pull out your trusty vinegar and a spray bottle. Fill the spray bottle halfway with vinegar and the rest with water. Give it a good shake and you’re ready to go to town. I have found that using microfiber cloths is a great option for getting a streak-free shine.

If you have anything sticky on your mirror, spritz it with the vinegar spray first and use one side of the cloth to wipe it away. Once all of the sticky stuff is gone, spray the entire mirror. Now, flip your cloth over, and wipe from side to side. Make sure you start at the top and move down the mirror as you go.
When you’re done, step to the side of the mirror to see if you’ve missed a spot and just use your cloth to touch it up.

Thank you for telling me how to mix the vinegar.
Hi Doris, Glad to help! 🙂
I have used vinegar for windows and mirrors for years. I love white vinegar for cleaning.
I love how simple this seems, and only two ingredients! I will have to try this next time I clean my mirrors. Thanks for sharing over at Simply Natural Saturdays. You will be the featured post this Saturday!
Hi Britney, I love cleaning with vinegar and water . I use it to clean almost everything in my house. It really does a great job on mirrors! What a pleasant surprise to be featured! I’m deeply humbled and appreciative. Have a great evening! ~Leigh
Great tip. I just switched over to vinegar based home made cleaners and could not be happier. I use coffee filters for my glass and mirrors since they are lint free & do a nice job as well. Plus, they are so cheap and durable!!! Thanks for sharing!!!
Hi Michele, I’ll have to try using the coffee filters. I have so many just laying around here. Thanks for commenting!
Great tip – does it work the same on windows and glass. Got a lot of french doors that need help!!
Yes, it does! Just don’t clean the glass on a sunny day. The sun dries up the solution faster than you can wipe!
Thanks Leigh!!
