However, as stunning as mirrored furniture is it can often become dirty, lets put it this way, it’s a very high maintenance product! It's not difficult to understand why either, the mirrored glass can become dirty from fingerprints, splodges and essentially everyday wear and tear. That’s why we’re here to help you with some simple tips that’ll keep your mirrored furniture looking super-clean so your home looks the part. So, you might be thinking is mirrored furniture hard to keep clean? Well, our tips below should make it a little easier for you.
1. CLEAN MIRRORED FURNITURE WITH MICROFIBRE CLOTH
Dust is the biggest enemy of mirrored furniture, so you need to invest in a microfibre cloth, you might even have one already! Dust will always show on your mirrored furniture, so a quick wipe with a microfibre cloth will almost certainly remove these speckles of dust. Not only does this clean your furniture, but it's also super-easy and quick, it takes no time at all and once it's done, it's done!
2. AVOID SHARP OBJECTS
Mirrored furniture can gain scratches and scuff marks relatively easy, but don’t let this put your off from decorating the surface with personal keepsakes. You just need to be aware that vases or picture frames may cause damage. It's more likely that they’ll scuff the surface if they are dragged along the top, so avoid this to keep your furniture scratch-free.
3. NON-SOLVENT CLEANER
When you clean your mirrored furniture with a cloth and spray, always avoid using a cleaner that has solvent in it. You can even make a homemade solution with white wine vinegar and water, which keeps the furniture looking shiny and brand-new. You must not use a general spray cleaner; this will give your furniture streaks and can even darken the reflective finish. A mirror and glass-cleaning solution can also be found in supermarkets, we recommend you use these as well.
4. AVOID PERFUMES AND ALCOHOL
We all know that a mirrored dressing table or mirrored console table will most likely be used as your new makeup station. However, it's important to avoid spilling alcoholic based substances on the surface, as long as you clean up the area straight away with water and a microfibre cloth. We understand that accidents happen, so just be ready to clean the area immediately after a spillage to avoid long-term stains.
5. KEEP MIRRORED FURNITURE SAFE
Placing your mirrored furniture in a mirrored area that won’t get regular ‘traffic’ is a must if you want to keep your furniture looking brand-new! Mirrored furniture can get scuffed incredibly easily, so avoid placing your furniture near doors or entranceways as even the slightest touch may cause the mirrored furniture to scratch.
These five steps should hopefully keep your furniture looking cleaner and in pristine condition for longer.
