00:00You're probably cleaning your mirrors all wrong.
00:02Here are four things you should stop doing if you want crystal clear, streak-free mirrors.
00:06Remove dust first with a dry cloth so it doesn't spread it around when you spray it wet.
00:09Paper towels leave lots of lint behind.
00:12Your best bet is to use a flat-weed microfiber cloth, not your regular microfiber cloth.
00:16Don't use the same cloth you use to wipe 12 other surfaces in your house.
00:19Otherwise, you're just dragging dirt across your mirrors, and that's gross.
00:22Spraying the mirror directly means you'll get tons of cleaning power and full coverage.
00:26And voila! Crystal clear mirrors.
