Third, if your fixture has a mirrored surface, do your best not to spray it. It was about 50/50 in terms of clearing off the flat plane of the mirrored surface which took some careful micro-cloth attention to get rid of the streaks. After an hour or so I had formulated a recipe for a DIY chandelier cleaner that would cost a fraction of what the Sparkle Plenty would have cost had I paid for it. Because I had both things on hand, I mixed a concoction of 1 part rubbing alcohol with 3 parts DISTILLED water. Blue is the most loved colour around the world. Blue! Even among women in Thailand. Women everywhere as a matter of fact. That's right. The favoured colour among the majority of women in the world is not pink or purple or polkadotsparkle. It's blue.

Once you do that horrible job one time, you'll be able to maintainyour chandelier by just spraying it with a chandelier cleaner. I'd say maybe 3 or 4 times a year. If your chandelier is a total disaster, like the one in my kitchen that was covered in 10 years of french fry grease, then you're gonna have to hand clean your chandelier by spraying a microfibre cloth or glove with chandelier cleaner or warm soapy water or Windex and rubbing each crystal clean. So months, sometimes years, after I should have, I'd take the chandelier apart and wash all the crystals by hand with Windex. Sometimes I'd put all the chandelier crystals into the the dishwasher to clean them. I took my homemade chandelier cleaner over to the other half of my chandelier and started spraying just like I did with the Sparkle Plenty. The results were exactly the same as far as I could tell. Fourth, at about the 5 minute mark, go around the fixture’s crystals and dab the bottoms with a micro cloth where the drips are hanging. Mine were very dirty (renovation and drywall dust). This step saved me from having to hand-wipe them all on the 2 largest chandeliers.Most cleaning products are made up of distilled water and a bunch of other stuff. Often either ammonia or isopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol). All you do is spray the cleaner on your chandelier (a lot ... you have to spray so much that it's actually dripping off your chandelier) and the dirt drips away. I'd known about spray cleaning chandeliers for years but never bought the stuff for fear it would be money wasted. But for the sake of this blog and science I went out and stole some from my local hardware store. Once I got home I tried it, it worked and I got to work deciphering what exactly Sparkle Plenty was made out of. I've always owned at least one crystal chandelier and dreaded cleaning it so much I just didn't. A crystal chandelier loses a bit of its charm when it's covered in grease and cat hair unless you're one of those avant garde types.

I created a diversion by pointing at 1 of the 15 men in the hardware store wearing a plaid shirt and a beard, and yelled OH MY GOD IT'S BOB VILA. Sparkle Plenty smelled like Windex so that's where my research started; figuring out what Windex is made of. Point is, drip dry chandelier cleaner works whether it's store bought (stolen) or made.
