Cleaning Sand-blasted Glass

Dear Aunt Daisy, I have a recipe that may be acceptable to your listener who is worried about finger-marks on sand-blasted glass. I found the following removed putty marks, paint and all dust and left a lovely shine on my front door, and bathroom. windows which had never been cleaned at all by the original tenant and my predecessor. Please tell your listener never to use any window cleaner that dries to a white finish as she will never get the "haze" off. Mix together equal parts of methylated spirits, kerosene and water; put into a bottle (I use a beer bottle) and shake until well mixed. I clean all my windows with this and they do shine and it deters the flies. too.

The sand-blaster told me to use a commercial cleaner, but I have always just cleaned it with my own window-cleaner, and it is always shiny and clean, even though I have four children under six years of age. This is what I use: One cup each of kerosene, methylated spirits and water. Bottle this and shake before |

using."
