Does Your Dishwasher Leave Dishes Spotty?
Posted at 17:14, 05/06/2008 by LauraWilliams
Ever open the dishwasher to find your stemware covered in spots? What a waste of electricity, water, and time. Don Vandervort of Home Tips explains how to fix the problem.
First, you need to determine whether the film is removable or permanently etched. To do this, soak a glass in undiluted white vinegar for 15 minutes. Or, wash the glass with warm water and concentrated dishwasher detergent. If the film comes off, it is likely caused by hard water minerals, improper amounts of detergent, or unsuitable water temperature.
If it’s permanent etching, you can’t make it clear again, but you can prevent this from happening in the future.
Check out the Home Tips dishwasher page for the solution.
