cleaning question??? - 1/28/2004 1:54:15 PM    clary1265   Posts: 1 Joined: 1/28/2004 From: Swansboro, NC Status: offline I use vinegar to clean calcium build-up off glass items such as coffee pots, drinking glasses, shower doors. Will it work on the hazy build-up on old bottles found burried in the dirt???? Post #: 1

RE: cleaning question??? - 1/28/2004 3:04:27 PM    Guest it might take some calcium deposits off the surface, but some glass that has been buried for long periods becomes " sick" meaning it has reacted with something in the ground and will not clean up as new. this would require tumbling. _____________________________ Always looking Mint Cola bottles, and local bottles from North Carolina (in reply to clary1265)   Post #: 2
