Cleaning a Chandelier Beautifully, by the Best Residential House Cleaning and Maid Service in Evanston, IL.

The Best Residential House Cleaning and Maid Service in Evanston, IL., Dial-A-Maid, shows how to clean a chandelier beautifully. All crystal chandeliers become dusty over time and should be cleaned when the crystals are no longer clear, says the Best Residential House Cleaning and Maid Service in Evanston, IL. Dial-A-Maid.

A few items are needed in order to effectively clean any chandelier. A blanket or drop cloth, cotton gloves, a step ladder, 2 large bathing towels, preferably different colors, to be put on either side of your sink, and a cleaning solution, and a digital camera. Optional, is a needle nose pliers, if needed. A good, homemade, cleaning solution is to combine 1 part rubbing alcohol and 4 parts water in a bowl. Place the solution in the sink, says the Best Residential House Cleaning and Maid Service in Evanston, IL., Dial-A-Maid.

Before you begin, take a digital photograph of the chandelier, so as to be able to remember where all the crystals are placed. Spread the blanket under the chandelier, to get any one crystal that might fall by accident. Then, put your cotton gloves on and start to remove the chandelier crystals, being careful not to drop any or dislodge any wires. Place the dirty ones on the left side of the sink, and the clean ones on the right side. Put the dirty crystals into the cleaning solution in the sink and rub with a soft cloth. Then, rinse them off and place them on the right side, to let them dry. Take your time, as the crystals are very delicate, and hard to replace, if you break one or drop one, states the Best Residential House Cleaning and Maid Service in Evanston, IL., Dial-A-Maid.

If there is any metal in the chandelier, clean it with a metal cleaner, before replacing the now clean crystal back to the chandelier, says the Best Residential House Cleaning and Maid Service in Evanston, IL., Dial-A-Maid.
